... to fund whatever sweet bike I get this summer. I'm not going to sell it until I already have
a new bike, but it'd be cool to know about how much I could get for it, for planning purposes
and whatnot.
Here's the rundown:
Frame: Fisher '98 (?) Kaitai hardtail
Fork: Marzocchi Z2 Atom Bomb '98
Headset: Chris King right now, but I'll probably replace it with a cane creek or something and put
the CK on my new bike
Stem, Seatpost: Thomson. Depending on sizes, these might migrate too.
Bars: Easton Monkeylite XC Carbon, also moving, so figure a lightweight aluminum flatbar.
Drivetrain: All XT with the exception of LX crankset and SRAM chain, figure '00-01 model year
Wheels: XT Hubs, Mavic 517 front, Mavic 618 (slightly beefier XC rim, a little more expensive than
the 517s). Very new, less than 250 miles on 'em I'd say
Brakes: Avid Arch Rival 50 with new pad holders; SD9.0L levers (I think), Moonlight Custom Titanium
brake boosters
The bike is in pretty good condition. Fork has a few scratches, frame has a few paint chips and
scrapes (as you'd expect from a bike thats been used) and some cosmetic pieces of decal gone, and a
bit of scratching around the bottom bracket from chainsuck, but is otherwise pretty much flawless.
I figure I might be able to get $500-ish for it, and I'm trying to decide whether it'd be better to
keep it as a backup bike (which would be sweet), or sell it and get my new one a LOT sooner (500 bux
is a pretty big chunk of change to me!)
Thanks, as always.
