Need help IDing this Serotta Colorado frame

A local bike non-profit received this older Serotta Colorado frame as a donation and is looking for more information. Anyone know how old it is and what it might be worth?

Very good chance it's a Colorado II from the early to mid 1990's.

Based on the "CC" in the serial number it was a custom build which is no surprise given the size.

It was probably built in 1991ish and most likely built by Kelly Bedford or yours truly.

I have zero clue what it is worth but it looks like a nice ride. If someone buys it and they want a replica fork there are a few of us that can do that.

Sorry I couldn't offer more.

Getting into my size range, I agree I might do about that without fork. I would build that up and ride it.
