kona1991 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Hi Lads, Long time not being on here but saw this bike for sale recently and wondered what you guys would value it at! I don't have any spec for it just a single pic! Let me know how much you reckon its worth and I may be on here a lot more Cheers Connor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalopS Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 £50? Its hard to say without a spec. It might be worth going for something a little more modern though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old'scoolfool Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 the 04 maggies alone are worth £50, finding a buyer for the frame would be your only problem when re-selling but i could split that for £125 easy but as a whole probably £80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 It's an old orange zero isn't it? I'd say £100 would be the upper limit. Just purely because of how cheap slightly newer but infinitely better stuff is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrialsIsHard Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 It's an old orange zero isn't it? Did you look at the picture? As a started bike I think that'd be fine, although something newer might help you progress faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I just remember a similar colour schemed zero lol. And I'm on my phone so pics are tiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Old school baby! Looking at a bike that has a small seat is tempting me to re build my old ddg combat issue frame or go on the hunt for a orange zero or hawsie frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kona1991 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Ha, Good range of responses their lads but thanks non the less! I'm not a complete beginner... this would be my third trials bike just wanted to get back out riding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As other people have said the world is very ficcle and people will sell a very good quality bike cheap as its last years model colour etc, I dont dismis some of the older stuff as my own mountain bike is a ally frame with Deore DX 96 on it so its 15 years old but it does evey thing I want, so if you like the colour and the price is right just buy it and ride it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like i would never sell my Kona dj bike... However in this case i would only be using the bike to get my skills up to scratch and then would be looking to re-sell, so i'm not gonna invest money into a bike which isn't going to be worth anything at re-sale.

J Trials 31 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 I had one of these as my first "real" trials bike. Terrible geo, I think the wheelbase was somewhere around 1010mm and I kept rubbing my shoes on the tire when I had my foot forward and turned, but it did get me started off right. Mine was the black and gold one. LOL. It's really up to you, I would never personally buy one again, but if it gets you going for cheap why not?

JD™ Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 A bike worth £50 now will still be worth £50 when you sell it. That's the ONLY upside to that bike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 If you can get it for less than £80 its worth it. If not, don't bother. They are super short, the flat bars are horrible, the freehub isn't up to decent riding and those tyres are pretty terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
