I have an Iron Man Centurion Bicycle that I bought from a neighbor a while ago and I now am looking to sell it. It is a great bicycle in excellent condition and he rarely rode it. I put around 600 miles on the bicycle and then finally had enough money to pay for a Cannondale I've wanted for a while. At any rate, if anyone can tell me how much this bike is worth I would appreciate it. I was thinking about selling it for approximately $250 US dollars just because I have around $100 in tires alone on the darn thing. I may be reached on here but it's better to catch me on yahoo messenger as ntxguy2003 or email at [email hidden] or [email hidden] - I am in the Dallas/FortWorth, Texas area and can ship it just about anywhere but the buyer will need to pay shipping expenses. It's a real nice item for a collector of rare bikes. Any input would be appreciated and I can take some digital photos and send via email if anyone is interested. I believe it has suntour components/equipment.

Way too much. I was in a bike shop this weekend and I saw one of these bikes next to the cash register - I assumed someone had left it for service. The bike shop guy told me the owner of the Centurion had just bought a new bike and wanted to get rid of his Centurion and the bike shop guy took it as a courtesy but planned on junking it. He gave it to me for free.
Repeat - I got one for free! Turned it into a fixed gear already.
You'll be lucky to get more than $50 for yours. Keep it for a foul weather bike. -

OK, ammend that to say "You'll be lucky to get $150 for it." The highest price I found was $181.50, the lowest was $51 and there were a several that had no bids or less than reserve bids. Still more valuable IMO as a back-up bike than as an eBay sale.
It's at least 15 years old with a 6-speed freewheel and it's not rare, they sold a LOT of these bikes to triathlete wannabees, and no one will give you extra for putting on $50 tires. Anybody who buys one of these is probably looking for a commuter or a cheap replacement.
It probably has Shimano, not Suntour - there were two models that I remember, Expert (105, pink and yellow) and Master (600, white and grey).
