    i would have thought with a build quality like that and weight it would do very well. not an expert but i bet £600 + for the frames age would be a good price to start it at on ebay. it would also do well split for parts. brakes forks and mechs and shifters alone must be worth a fair bit. then a carbon frame to. what were you thinking its worth like said before.

    The frame used to go for £800, but I got a good deal on the whole bike, but most of the components have changed and been sold now.

    Total spend on it is around £2,800!! (minus any sales of parts) but not sure if I would get that and hopefully it wont come to that either!!

    Less than a grand, i sold an XTC composite with full XTR about 2 yrs ago for £850.

    I should have split but was in a hurry, fact you’ll make more if yer split.

    Tricky, you’ve got to look at what you can get new.
    Cube do a Reaction GTC team with Fox alps forks and full XT for £1600 or a GTC pro for £1399 with SLX and rebas.
    You can get a new XTC composite 2 for £1850 not the same spec but it is a new bike.
    A quick look on Ebay show 3 composite frames ranging with bids up to £250 on one, £155 on another and £96 on one with some chain suck damage.
    On a good day you might get £1000, but I’d say closer to £800 for the complete bike.

    You’ll get more by breaking it and selling the parts separately – reckon about £1000-1200 selling the parts.

    Based on my own recent experiences of selling parts I’d guess –
    Fork – £250-300
    Wheels – £200
    Frame – £250-350
    Brakes – £150
    etc

    shame because it looks a nice build there with a great weight/ kit set up. id try pink bike or gumtree first before ebay. save ebay and paypal feeas. also on here and a few other forums it may do well with folks that recognise quality parts rather than just seen an older bike. try also here for selling it if need be.
