Pinarello aluminum road bike
Hello everyone! Saw this bike on the local classifieds. So, this is an aluminium Pinarello, probably from the 90s. What model and what year is it and what is it worth? They are asking 300 EUR for it – ~320 USD. Pics:
Is it really worth 300 EUR? I think not, but Pinarello bikes and Campy groupsets are very, very rare here, plus it's a business selling the bike, not a private seller.

The graphics on the frame are different than US marketed Pinarellos. The aluminum Pinarello models, from memory, are I think Galileo, Opera, and I think maybe Paris. The Campagnolo group looks to be late 90’s 9 speed with newer 10 speed chain rings.
In the US, that would be worth $320 dollars if indeed you could verify the Pinarello frameset.

Thank you very much! It must be a Paris frameset. Found one with identical graphics, but different components here:

EDIT: Also, found an ebay listing of a frame:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pinarello-P...-/112843616330
Lots of frames that can be found on google have lost the lettering, so it's not a surprise that the one I am interested in also doesn't have anything written on it.

I haven't seen a Pina like this in the US but the altec aluminium and Campy 9 speed stuff does date it to the 97-99.
