Do you think this bike is worth the price of $425?

Answer 1

No, it's not worth it. The bike is 20+ years old, cost <$400 new and is not a classic or collectable. Bikes like this typically go for $100 in good shape.

EDIT: I see you asked about at least one other bike. Be careful, these ads are pie-in-the-sky prices for the sellers. On free sites there is no cost to run adds so some people ask outragious prices in hopes of acually getting it.

Answer 2

Seems high. Costs new back in the 80's for $300-$450.

Depends on the year, it was equipped with Shimano 105 group. Frame looks small, usually frame that is not of average size fetch lower price.

check this site for a price comparison.

Answer 3

Oh uhhh WOW.... First off, your paying too much, the Miyata three ten is full steel frame. Your paying too much for a 1980- bike.I know this because I OWN the same model (BLACK). AND its a guys bike, even though its sky-blue. It may look like its a girls bike, but you can recognize a bike if its a male or females bike by its frame.

For example: Womens: http://www.rutlandcycling.com/ProductIma...

You see how the frame is different?
