some information on a 'Lemond' frame

Could you help me get some info on this frame? And a fair value, if possible?

The only info from the owner is SLX steel, 1990, 2.7kg.

This is one of the pics:





Thank you

It looks like a good one, lugged Lemonds of that vintage/color scheme are desirable. If reasonably priced and it fits with no damage, it would be a buy it. ...calling jamesdak .

James will clarify

It disappeared so I assume it's sold.

The asking price was the equivalent of 666 US dollars (it's a coincidence, I hope ).

I would have paid up to $1,000 USD for that frame.

I'm also a sucker for that paint scheme and frame in particular, I'd have leapt at 650 and would also be inclined to spend up towards 1k. Just a cool bike.

It looked a bit small for someone 5’10”...maybe 55cm?

Im 5’11” and 56cm is a bit cramped but doable. 57 is the sweet spot.

They didn't make too many of them 30 years ago and they're becoming more scarce. This LeMond is one I've wanted since I was a teen. To me, this frame in this condition and in my size is worth $1,000 USD of my money.

Pretty sure that's the one that was being discussed on the Lemond FB page. Guy posting there bought it. It was actually a TSX tubed 52 cm frame.

Could you please provide a link? Private, if it's against forum's rules.
I am really curious.

Thank you
