Tragedy that a beautiful bike met its end in such a state...

I hope it is gone by today, because it's been posted every day for 6 months now. Never dropped in price, never cleaned or tuned.,,,,BD

Not a bad bike at all, but very high in price, and will not drop it a cent to move it. The MS150 is overwith as of
last weekend, so I think his target audience is gone until next year. CL always seems to get flooded with grossly
inflated prices about a month before the ride, then you barely see decent road bikes again until the next year.,,,BD

Somehow, that reminds me of Stephen Colbert's book title: I am America, and So Can You!

That's a Bridgestone, aka Kabuki, imported by C. Itoh, sometimes with that name on it. I had one as a commuter bike. It was OK, and it was reliable. For the condition and cleanliness, I'd say $150 is a fair, non-wacky price.

Sure it's nice, but Craigslist isn't an auction site, so set a price and stop fishing:

Vintage Fuji 1982 road bike - Damaged frame - $75 (Dupont Adams Columbia DC)
I am selling this vintage FUJI 1982 road bike because I don't use it any more.
The bike is now in very good condition, except for one local point of the frame, which is damaged (see picture).
Thus, the price is 75$ or best offer. Email me soon for questions or visits, this deal won't last long.
Yeah, for 75 bucks, why not see if a little elbow grease can take care of that "local damage"

It's worth $75 for the kickstand alone! Be fair.

Please sned your phone number in your reply. No phone number replies get thrown out with the rest of the spam. I want $150 o.b.o. cash only. Will trade for other vehicle that run on gas. It needs a few parts but is rideable.It may come with spare engine parts depending on what you want to offer me. It needs the complete shifter set up for a shimano 3 speed. It needs a pull starter, The electric start does work. It runs great. It is best for riders under 200 pounds . It has a small motor. I think its 49 cc. It does have an automatic transmission. Let me know what you have to trade. Im looking to do full or partial trades. I dont want to come out of my pocket though. Cash , trade and pick up only.
