There's a similar thread in Classic & Vintage and I might post these finds in that forum also, but these are tandem specific. I could not find such a thread in this forum so here goes. These turned up on the Richmond VA CL today. Not mine.

Thanks for these posts, guys. It's fun to see what's out there.
That's a nice deal on the Rumba. We have a Rock N Roll of maybe the same year and it's a nice ride (albeit heavy!) Henry |

There are a few dozen tandems for sale around the Sacramento area right now. The Craigslist pickings seem rich right now in general. In the tandem category there are a bunch of 1990's-ish steel Burleys and Santanas in the $500-1000 range where I am shopping, along with a smattering of more and less expensive stuff. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for maintainable and upgradeable Shimano indexing and 26" or 700c not 27" wheels, which puts me 1990 or later, and I want a bike in good nick since I'd rather go ride than spend my wife's patience on tinkering. I've fallen victim to the hard sell about tubing and fork strength and wheel quality at the Santana website and so I'm looking at them specifically. There seems to be no real consensus on pricing them, as seemingly equivalent things get priced at $800 and $1600. Here are a few examples.
Burley Duet Tandem Bicycle old but nice components and accessories and a sad story $400 bicylces (tandem, recumbent) & accessories Co-Motion with couplers $1500 Burley 16 Spd Tandem Bicycle This won't go away at $250. Too far away and wife thinks it's too weird. vintage Ritchey mountain tandem Spendy but it says Ritchey on it |

Recent vintage. Decked-out for the price, with couplers and carbon fork.

Low price, but hinky looking listing. I'm too often and recently bitten by the people who send a text to ask for an unfiltered email...
I did Google enough to see that SCI has something to do with the Ishiwata tube set at the time Cool Santana SCI tandem bike |
So do you have 205 miles to ride back home now?
|
No... no tandem soon I think. And when I do it will have to be 700c and Shimano, no messing about with antiques. A man can obsess, though.
Here's my CL search string. (trek|cannondale|khs|burley|santana|*motion|co-mo|friday|vinci|hokitika|paketa|seven|raleigh|schwinn) tandem |
Should I try to keep this thread going, does anyone read it?
Trek Tandem $500.00 Trek 200 tandem size Med. with full Campi component $500.00 very good condition. Gives me hope that when I do buy, there will be deals. |

I really think that if you are going to switch to V brakes then you ought to have this canti hanger hold something else. I don't know what, though.

The only other mention I can find of a Calvert is by @zonatandem a few years ago, posting about tandems seen at a swap meet. He said it was from WA. Some fillets and some lugs. This one is sort of pink or faded burgundy, and crusty but expensive looking components. $200!

Bike Friday triple tandem
Coupled triples are pretty rare on CL, and this is a price similar to what I've seen for late model 2-seaters. |

I'm wondering what the heck that chainring is doing in the middle of the timing chain, and he has the cantilevers connected with a crazy long yoke cable. But at $200, you've got plenty of room to fix it up to something you like, even adding brifters, etc. My 1979 Santana has worked well for us so far, on quite a few rides up to 60 miles.
The he floating chainring provides tension. |
