TheCircus Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 Hmmm. I have a niggling doubt that you willl be albe to shift it all at once, but if you did I would go for £700 at a very hard push, but settle for £550. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boothy Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 (edited) I would have thought more than £80 for the frame, maybe £100 or slightly more. A lot of it depends on the condtion though. Maybe post a pic up as well. Edited April 10, 2005 by Boothy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorpy Posted April 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 all of it is less than a year old except for the frame which is just over a year. everything is in mint condition but the frame has the usual scratchs. there are pics in my gallery!!!!

TheCircus Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 A year is a long time, lets say you rode.....4 hours every week. Thats 4x52=208 hours riding. lets take....30 hours off that for missed days etc. 178 hours is a long time being put under extreme pressures of trials, and judging from your riding gallery, you aint' so bad. In conclusion, split the parts and sell the bike that way, you will make a bit more this way, particularly as people aren't really after full bikes in the price range you are talking about selling it at.
