    one prob with old giants is the discounting pauls cycles offer on new-old stock undermines any idea of RRP. I assume suntour XP75 is in fact a suspension fork and not a headset by the way!

    A search of fleabay incl completed sales shows one 06 terrago disc went for £215. Another went for just £136…

    So £200 if its mint?

    you think its worth splitting it and selling the frame ect on it own?

    no because (no offence intended) the parts are too low-end to be worth anything, and the frame isn't something special enough that someone would want to buy it and build their bits up on it.

    Braking and selling separately is only worthwhile for high end bikes where youd struggle to get what you want for a full bike (think £1600 Santa Cruz Nomads etc)but plenty of people might want the frame and/or the nice sexy kit.

    If you get £200 for it thats nearly half of rrp for a 4yr old bike, which is actually a really good return. If I was you and someone offered/bid £200 I'd bite their arm off.
