Nishiki Custom Sport value
Does anyone know this exact year or a range for the value?
I set this bike up for gravel riding but I've got another project I need to work on. This bike is very clean. Thank you for any information!

As for the year I would place at as 83/84 if you give us the serial number off the bottom bracket the exact year of manufacture can be determined. As presented in really great ready to ride condition I would place value at $150 or so in the Op's market. Really nice bike but it is a low end model with steel 27 wheels, claw hanger and safety levers which along with location will hold value down on this one,

We're in fairly close agreement, as I was going to say 1982-1984 and $125.

Thank you all very much! I might just hang on to it and ride it. It would make a fun SS cyclocross bike

These do make great SS gravel grinders the frames while not high are way better than the stock components would indicate and they have a nice wheelbase allow for an easy conversion with 700's there is plenty of room bigger tires and fenders. I have a slightly older one set up as a SS that is one of my main riders.
