Im thinking of maybe selling this bike. I built this bike (cue the hilarious comments) a few years back and it's never ever going to get ridden again which seems a bit of a shame. It has literally been ridden a handful of times and aside from a tiny chip in the powder on one rim it is like brand new.
Trouble is I have absolutely no idea of its value. I know new school stuff does not hold the resale value of old school stuff but I truly am at a loss as to what I could possibly get for it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Here is the original thread with spec list.

I think you will be better off splitting it Adam, complete I don't think it would make much more than £500 but then I could be wrong?

Splitting it is the only way to get anything near what you paid back :daumenhoch:
...and when you say 'built' Adam ... 8)

£500 :shocked:
Fook it, I'll keep it.
Just out of interest though, what do you think I could get if parted?

You'd probably get between £150-200 for the wheels, £150 for the frame, £70 for the cranks (including BB). Rest of it:
Federal 20/20 forks & bars = 25 forks/20 bars
Profile Acoustic Stem 53mm reach = 35
Profile Dog Coller bar ends = 5
Oddysey pedals = 5
Shadow brake cables = 5
Oddysey brake Lever = 10
Oddysey Headset = 10-15
Shadow chain = depends which one it is, so about a tenner
Shadow seat = 10/15
Shadow sprocket = 20
Subrosa lay back post = 10
Proper brake = 15

Thanks Danny,
For an extra £100 approx I'll keep it.
Thanks for your help though chaps.

You wont get what you want for it even if you split it. Keep it and use it to dry your underpants on or sell all the parts and the frame would make a very stylish towel rail :D
or keep it and enjoy riding it every once in a while :)
