    Its been a while since I’ve sold forks but what should I pitch these at?

    2011 DH170 Lyrik coils with 1 1/8 steerer.

    3 springs

    Additions?
    – All 2012 dials/internals.
    – Uturn conversion.

    So the forks can be run as either DH170’s or fully U-Turn.

    Stanchions mint but scratches and scuffs on the lowers as to be expected.

    What would/should I value them at?

    I’ll give you £7.32 for them!

    In all seriousness it’s a tough one to call. If I had £500 spare I’d offer you that for them.

    The DH 170 Lyriks I had last year only cost £485 new from Merlin cycles, so I would say £350ish

    I just ‘bought’ (yet to pick-up/pay-for them) some 160mm ones for £180 (plus £20 for a new rebound adjuster).

    So your forks are worth £20 more than whatever you paid for them 😛

    On a serious note, what springs are they and will they fit in a 160mm version, might need a firm one.

    They wouldn’t. The Uturn spring is different to the DH170 springs. The DH spring runs the whole length of the lowers whereas the UTurn spring runs circa halfway then twists/blends with a steel shaft that then bolts into the lower-eye/bottom of the lowers to secure.

    So if you bought a new spring (gulp) I think they are circa £50 😮 – see if you can get away with the spring inside first!

    They are about that, but even if they do need one £250 for them isn’t bad.

    Don’t know what they’re worth but drop me a line once you decide, might be interested.
