A Centurion Pro Tour 15 for $220. Here is what Sheldon Brown said about it "It is a gem, perhaps the nicest mass-produced touring bike ever.". Centurian Pro Tour 15

Wow!! That looks so good. I bet it is an awesome ride?
I have been drooling over that frame all day. It fits my body not my wallet though. The fork may or may not be original, but even if it a 531 Reynolds fork, it would still be awesome.

I also noticed something odd in the photos, it could be just a camera angle playing tricks, but the rear chain side stay that comes from the seat (seat stay) down by the dropout where the oval part of the stay flattens to become the dropout appears to have been smashed flat or bent back into shape at one time or another, if you compare it to the other side it doesn't look the same then forget it about it! That area doesn't look like other pics of the same area I saw on the internet, something looks amiss about it, again could be just the photo.
I think if the bike was to be in mint barely used condition it might be worth $300, but that one looks to be well used and since it's aluminum I would pass.

I wonder if the bike ever really fit him. There looks to be at least 6" of drop from the saddle to the bars.

Put that in a box. I've never seen a geared tall bike.
