Fredy Ruegg 1969

[Midorimage]

This bike was listed for 3,000 USD with no bids. What is it actually worth? One of my dreams is to own a nice road bike that was built the year I was born.. and this was in my size.

Not familiar with this make so I have no idea on a value, although it does appear to have a number of nice custom bits on it. This seller gets very high prices for his bikes largely because he ships anywhere and is a known source. (even though this one did not sell) Still I don't think you need to spend anywhere near that to get a really nice bike from 1969. I have had great success by searching for sellers who demand local pickup or ship only in the States. By the way I have Schwinn Paramount built within a few months of my birth in July of 1963.
