mcgee9t2 Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 found a t-bird on ebay, the seller said she would remove it from the auction and i can pick it up for £100 buy it now. the seller lives in rippon which is about 30 miles away so not the furthest drive, about a hour and half both ways. this is the bike in question not sure weather i should go for it, what are your thoughts? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgee9t2 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 im gona say its not worth 100 quid thats the same as what i was thinking, just wanted a second opinion because i havent really been paying much attention to the trials bike seen for a few years and wanting to get back into it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Dont do it save up a little bit more, get validated and you can pick up a bargain for £250-£350 and it will have a much better spec and will last longer than that peice of Turd!!!

josh barker Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 £50-£60 @ max, especially with a bodge of a front wheel, save up to around £200 and you will get a good bike with a few little upgrades. Have a vote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 I wouldn't pay more than 60 pounds for it, especially if you're spending money on petrol to go pick it up too. But if you can get it for 40 pounds you can't go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 the back wheel is flat-probably a puncture "Probably"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
