91' Miyata 1000LT, BOSTON PICKUP ONLY
Its a 1991 -58cm most likely
all original -minus wheels (which i have)- these wheels are OEM Felt alloys, very nice
a brooks b17 saddle -
specialized armadillo 700x28 with less than 50 miles
OVERALL in excellent condition. What is it worth?
Local pickup only - Boston/ Burlington Northwest

That bike looks like it is clean and in nice shape. Well, it would be if was a full picture.
And, it sounds like the person didn't skimp. A good quality seat, and tires.
The cyclocross/touring style bikes are popular now. I wouldn't be surprised if it hit $300 to $500.

I think $300 is low for Boston and $500 would not be a bad price. It would not surprise me if it sold north of that.
That is top end vintage touring bike and it is in great shape.

I agree, at $300 you should be in your car already. $500 is realistic. Some might hope for $750. Top of the line touring model, which got better throughout. the 1980s and into the early 1990s.
