I'll buy it.

$200 and you pay shipping.

My neighbor showed me a bike that she has for sale for $100. It's a 1980
Motobecane Super Touring Mixte that has NEVER BEEN RIDDEN since it was brought
home from the store. Vitus double butted steel, Stronglight triple crank,
Suntour VX deraileurs, Mafac brakes, immaculate paint, all original except the
tires, even the braking surfaces are shiny. I really don't need another bike,
especially another 27" wheel bike, but this one is so perfect it's hard to
refuse. What could I do with it?

Hi, on the same topic, I just talked to a guy who has a 80's Schwinn
Peleton with Columbus tubing and Suntour components. He says the bike
is in great shape and well maintained. Also claimed that it weighs
about 16 lbs, I doubt that. He is riding a recumbent now, back
problems. I haven't seen the bike, my guess is the frame size would be
in the 54 -56 range. The owner of one of our LBSs told him that it
isn't worth anything, because it has down tube shifters. I don't need
and can't afford another bike, but I would like to give the guy some
decent info, on its value.
Any info, will be appreciated.

Life is Good!
Jeff

If you can't bring yourself to ride it, then sell it on eBay; I'll bet
you'd beat $100 for it.
