Good man, looks like a real beauty. We just bought a Super a month ago for my oldest son. Nice frame on ours, not so nice fork. Good luck.

For anyone lucky enough to be local in Asheville NC (RB1)

Not a steal, but reasonable and seemingly in primo shape.

The number provided goes to an auto shop in San Rafael, a bit closer. A co-worker said he has a few Fuji's(?) and other items posted. I'll send a PM...

Chrome is cool. Campy and Wolbers are too. 57cm, not cool

1985 Mangusta Road Bike, Full Chrome, 57cm - $300 (UofA)



1985 Mangusta road bike, 57cm measured center-to-center. 57cm top tube, 33" standover height. Nice fillet-brazed Columbus steel that's fully chromed and fully cool. This bike is completely original except for the tires and new bar tape. Campagnolo 980 front and rear derailleurs with Campagnolo Nuovo Record shift levers. Maillard hubs with Wolber 700c rims. Stronglight crankset. Weinman brakes and levers. This bike is smooth and really light for it's age. Call 977-9182 if interested.

Too small. You're likely to be closer to the 57-60 range, or 23-24", I'd guess.

Good deal on a small touring bike in the Chicago suburbs....

1986 Miyata TwoTen (210), 49cm, new tubes/tires, Perfect for WINTER! - $250 (Warrenville)

This bike had the original tires with numbs on them until I bought it and replaced them this spring. It turns out that I like riding my mountain bike more so I'm letting it go. I have the original owners manual and everything works great. It's a nice, comfy bike with touring geometry. It would make a sweet winter commuter for someone looking to keep their nicer bike inside. I live in the burbs, but I'm in the city pretty often if you want to meet up.

Got it! Funny story. I e-mailed the guy I'd go up to $150 is it was in very excellent shape, which it is. Couple pics to follow. When I got there I hemmed and hawed, explained the size issue (and yes, it is a little bigger than the Tivoli tugrul, not much, but a little), blah blah. Then I said, "While I wouldn't buy it to keep for myself probably <the jury might still be out on that> if you'd rather not have to have more people come out to look and just be done with it I'll give you the original $100. At $150 I'd have a hard time getting anything more than a pittance out of it for the time I'll put into the cleaning and tuning, but at $100 I could see a little for my effort." He bit, I rolled away with it 5 minutes later!

The paint is in amazing shape save for two little areas. There was a vinyl covered chain around the seatpost...two rice grain size rubs through the primer up there. And, on the DS chain stay, a little chippy slap outside the stick on "chrome" chain guard. Other than that it pretty flawless, the chrome fork crown is really nice. Chain and freewheel need a derusting, general cleaning, heck, the tires are Panaracer Pasela that still have some nubbins on them. He had tires and tubes changed a couple of years ago, rode it twice and it sat since. That's $40-50 in tires anyway. Tubes might even be good yet. I can reuse the cable housings after cleaning. The only thing new needed would be tape, new cables, and a close Duplicolor, which should be doable as it's a metallic candy red.

I currently have it stashed in the server room at one of my clients until I figure out how I'm going to deal with it on the "domestic front" haha!

Here you go:

+1, it was my first mtb and a very enjoyable ride. Crankset should be a Sugino AT. All lugged construction. My 84 had a flat crown fork but I think they went to a cast sloping crown at some point.
