Yes, it's a Sekai 4000...approximately 1975 era based on the head tube decal. I had a '78 for about 35 years until I sold it.
Some of the the 4000's had a fully chromed frame too. It was a criterium frame, so very quick but not so comfortable on long rides.

The ad is 2 hours old, so it's probably been sold for about 2 hours already. Dang- my size too!

Not a screaming bargain, but maybe if you're a collector . . . .

All the signs of a late 70's model: Vitus 172 frame, Suntour Cyclone ders.... I would chase this, but I already have a red one from 1974 and I am trying (SO HARD) to limit new bikes coming in...

https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/...147390201.html1980's Bertin Reynolds 531 - $250 (Vancouver)
Good condition Bertin (French) road bike. Reynolds 531 tubing, shimano dura ace derailleurs, shimano 600 crank, nice looking brakes. Paint is in good shape aside from one spot on the fork. There is also a dent in the top tube, but it is small and I would have no problems continuing to ride on it. Frame is 56cm, good for someone 5'6" to 5'9". Tuned up and ready to ride.

A note of caution: I once owned the same model. It was the only 25 inch frame bike I ever owned that had pedal overlap with front wheel. Sold that Crescent quickly.

I picked up this Ross Signature 292S from Goodwill for $15. My wife rode it very sparingly. I thought the bike was just ok. The craftsmanship was not top notch. My personal opinion is that they are overrated. I traded it for a Giordana Spica so I came out way ahead on the deal.

Oh my, does craigslist deliver.
Schwinn Criss Cross with the fabled suntour chainstay derailleur mount. Beyond that, the bike actually looks to be in pretty good condition.
https://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/...148533532.html
And, a bonus wheel building station for the professional who does hundreds a year. Can anyone say if it really has any benefits over a modern park tool version? I don't build wheels, so...yeah.
