I am looking for advice regarding the estimated bike value for a potential future sale if I cannot bring it back to Europe :(
 
Ah, I see. I don't need a new bike but if you look on Retrobike.co.uk there are some Bioracer frames and complete bikes on there. I didn't see the exact bike/frame but they might help you to come up with a price.

For reference, you might be better listing the parts in detail if you are trying to sell the bike. I can see you have a Campagnolo group set, which has value (particularly in Japan), but I'm not sure of the exact model.

Did you look on Yahoo Auction? Some of the vintage bikes go for crazy money on there but they are usually the premium Italian brands.

Best of luck with your sale!
 
How long is the top tube?
The only thing against the frame is it is only going to fit <3% of the bike buyers here in Japan. That lack of demand might hurt the price.
The Campag Record gear looks pretty good (about 1997) and plenty of older bikes still run 9 speed. You would need to take better photos of all the components to get an estimate. The wheels aren't going to be worth much IMO.
Usually when you book your airline ticket you can buy another bag allowance at a good price. I'd strip the frame and put it in a suitcase. then pack the wheels and parts around it and fill up the spaces with clothes if you still want to ride the bike or get a better price. I'd email Biofitter with the serial number and ask them who made the frame for them. That knowledge will help you sell it. They used a variety of builders and some of them are quite famous now.
Maybe try and sell it in Europe to get best money for it as the brand is better known over there. good luck.
