Help!!!!!!!
I am looking at getting a road bike for the first time and don't have a ton of money to spend. I found this bike on craigslist . What do you think? This is a 21 speed Raleigh Technium Olympian with some nice upgrades. It is a lightweight aluminum frame with 700c Mavic Wheels. It has a Shimano Exage crankset with Biopace chain wheels that are in great shape. These were made for a short while and are very collectible I also upgraded the front derailleur to an Ultegra. It has nice pedals with cages as well.
The bike has brand new 18mm 700c tires. This is a great bike to get into road biking without spending a fortune.

If your asking value.... 21 speed stuff makes it a little long in the tooth. $50-100 tops? What say you Bike Forums?

$150 if in excellent mechanical condition (tuned properly, true wheels, good tires, etc).
