Title: i hate these questions but i have no idea!?!
Post by: pickle on July 05, 2007, 04:20 PM
with a heavy heart i'm considering selling this frame and forks....about 97/98 MCS Magnum Group XLX in superb condition....the chrome is 10/10 and i'm the only person to have owned it from the shop.

my question is......what is it worth?   :-\

i know.....i love it!  it's just that it's not OS legal  :-\  so i've been offered a lovely Nora Cup frame anf forks but need funds.

I might not have to sell it but if i can't use it for what it was meant for i might let it go  :'(

thanks by the way  :)

Thanks for the feedback guys........i think i'll keep it then if it's not really worth much.  it rides really nicely and i'll give it a thrashing in the RWYB class at MK!  :daumenhoch:

youd be better keeping it. its probably a lot better bike than the money it would command.

you could strip the anno from the rims with caustic, and polish them. they could easily be taken to show quality.

Mate they're as cheap as chips new shool DB wheels off my lads old DB.  i'm just using them on it as i didn't want to spend any more money to get it riding.  in time i'll get some nice wheels.....might even stick tuffs on it?? 

By the way i ordered some new black tuffs for Toms performer and got a new set of Decals on the way......should look really nice by the end of next week!  :daumenhoch:

Ohhhhh forgot to add.....that washer came yesterday!  many thanks!  :daumenhoch:  a beer on me at MK mate!  :daumenhoch:
