Schwinn Super Le Tour
Seller is in Seattle and wants $280. Seem reasonable?
The bike is clean and has been refreshed (hubs/BB/headset greased, chain lubed, thoroughly cleaned). Serial # SG578993. Shifters are both downtube friction and seem to work just fine.
Not allowed to post pics yet :/
Thanks!

I have the very same bike. I bought it a year ago. Sadly. It’s too large for me.
However, I can honestly tell you... it’s a great bike!!
I wish it fit. I love it.
The Columbus chro mo frame is light, around 24lbs (lighter than some modern cyclo cross bikes). It absorbs bumps and vibrations. It’s smooth yet sporty.
I think this is a 1986. If so, then that’s a Suntour Cyclone derailer. Cyclones are highly regarded. I think you will be amazed how well it shifts. It’s very smooth and precise.
Weinmann rims. Bottle bosses, it can take panniers, racks, etc. This one seems to even have the original Avocet saddle. Very cool.
A lightweight, quality touring bike. If it fits and it’s in good condition then...you may just love it. Check it out.
