Need ID on ~1980's Miyata
Here's the bike:
https://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/bik/395424334.html
Additional information:
Suntour 7 rear dérailleur
1024 steel
Unfortunately it's small for me... I'm 5'9'' and the guy said it measured ~20'' center to center.
So what is it?

I don't see how to tell for sure based on just what's there.
fwiw - I'm 5' 9", am proportioned quite "normally", and I think that bike would probably fit me quite nicely.

Assuming the wheels are alloy and true, and the bike rides decent, It may not be a bad deal for $50. Especially if the bike is rust free.
Miyata bottom of the line was still better than alot of other bikes out there.
