IMHO, between R2,000 to R2,500

[BuffsVintageBikes]

I'd guess a little higher, around the R3500 mark, just because it's a Holdsworth and they are not that common in SA.
But the 501 tubing and 105 components lets it down a little. 531 with Dura-Ace would have pushed the price up considerably.

Lovely looking bike however and I'm sure it rides great 🤙

Nice bike, IF you wish to bring it back (the pedals) to the era it was from, I have a set of vintage Shimano 105 PD 1055 pedals (with the toe clips, but not shown...) that are from that era - not everyone's 'flavour', but period correct!

Cheers

Thanks all, much appreciated

@BuffsVintageBikes indeed a stunning , smooth ride,  from the very short spin I have had so far

@Zebra thanks , yes not really my flavour, but if I have the urge to restore to period correct status will definitely give you shout

now if you could get the cleats for those pedals it would be a winner

its possible they could have been available in blue, the ones I used to have were black.

 

looks like a more modern version of what I used to use

These are the ones but any old style slotted cleat will work.
