This from the DC Craigs List. It is close to me, I would at very least look at it for a CR lister. I have enough bikes for now... regards harvey sachs mcLean va

Rare 1978 Schwinn Volare road bike with all original full Dura Ace groupset, Reynolds 531 double-butted tubing (Red); 23\u201d frame (medium size, fits me well at 5\u201910 or 11\u201d). This was Schwinn\u2019s first Japanese-made, lightweight, high-end bike with Dura Ace, one step in price below the Schwinn Paramount racing bike; I read this was the first-generation Dura Ace groupset sold here. Original pedals and Brooks saddle included, or I can include a newer saddle. Tires and handlebar tape are near new (~200 miles). Some cosmetic blemishes and decal wear; otherwise in surprisingly good shape. All original paperwork including 1978 Schwinn catalog.
