Price Check on Fiori

Hey, I came across a bike on Kijiji, it is a Fiori Road Bike that is going for $390.00. Looks like it is in great condition. Couldn't find much info on this bike online and wanted to get a better insight on approx value, to see if it is worth it.

Fiori Road bike for sale | road | City of Toronto | Kijiji

Thanks in advance.

Fiori was made by Norco. That bike sold for as much as they are asking now, so in my mind they are dreaming on the price. It is not a large frame as the ad suggests but a small at 21". Something wonky is going on with the stem as it originally had a quill stem and this bike has a threadless stem. Could be an adapator in there but check it as it is not original. T-MAR on this board is the resident expert and can tell you more. It also has what looks like a Flick Stand which is pretty cool.

I pretty much echo the previous post The bike is worth a small fraction of the asking price. The frame looks smallish, not for anyone over average height. 12 speeds dates it back at least 30 years in age if not more. That was at most a $300 bike when new

The fork is definitely not the original one.
