CL has been dropping some gems lately...here's another one-

The Stumpjumper is the bike that started it all. Well, it was the first MTB
(1981) to be mass-produced and widely marketed and (IMO) no one's topped it
yet. I've seen mint condition early SJs go for $2000+ on eBay...200 is
pretty damn good for a Stumpjumper in rough shape, but this one looks like
it's been stored since the first Reagan administration.

Specialized Allez Pro road bike for $140 in Berkeley (another great deal)

...in case no one's noticed, I'm partial to old steel Specialized bikes.
I've owned several over the years, and am currently working on yet another
one (albeit slowly), At last count I've owned and enjoyed three Allez from
various years and can vouch for the ride and quality...this one appears to
be a mid 80s build, when Specialized was arguably at the top of their game.
