The catalog specifies Campy SR, but it's Shimano 105/600EX all over as far as I can see. I'd consider it at 1/4 of the asking price.

That 770 is still a great frame, but yeah, the parts are throwaways. I picked up a 770 not too long ago for more than this, but it's all original Campy SR with tubs + clincher wheels.

I've purchased from seller before, was a good transaction. Definitely looks to be parting out things, but the NR stuff I saw at the time of the first listing didn't date-match to the approximate range of that bike's serial number.

Regardless, those are nice bikes but I'd probably bargain down to $350-ish.

Not a brand I've seen too often in the US, but Columbus Tretubi/Shimano 105 "Golden Arrow" makes for a very nice mid-range roadie. Weren't these Belgian bikes?

Cheap Trek - Already Gone
I was going to post this... Really I was. But then I decided to pounce instead. Called the seller 22 minutes after the ad went up, and I was first. Beat every flipper in the Twin Cities - he told me his phone didn't stop ringing until he pulled the ad down.
This one may be my first flip. It's in excellent condition and all-original. What ever happened to that appraisal / What's-it-worth thread?
