I'd love your opinion - good price for a Terry Symmetry?

[spotlightmama]

If it is in mint condition as they say, and it is new enough to have 9 speed components, its an excellent value (I have owned 4 terry bikes). Do you know what year it was made? I know the bikes from 2001 on are definitely 9 spd, possibly earlier ones are too.
p.s. actually the comment on 27 speeds means it is a 9 spd triple, so yes its a very fair price (if condition is as stated). Of course the size has to be right too. If you know the size, I have some older geometry charts I could email you.

Thanks!! I asked the size and this is his response:

"The “standover” height is 28”

When I asked the year, he said he didn't know the exact year. I was thinking of buying it with the stipulation that I would have it checked out by my LBS to confirm that it is as new as he says.

ETA: I just went to my LBS and tried out a 50cm, which he said was a great fit. He said I could also probably go with a 52cm. I don't know if that helps at all...
