If you can afford those tools ou don;t need to ask...

£70-£100 posted? It's got disk mounts. Halfords were knocking out complete bikes for £700.

Is it new/unused?

Here's a link to Halfords selling a complete bike for £700

http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/road-bikes/rx-pro-56cm

I'd say £150-200 max if unused?

It's a second hand alloy frame - it's never going to fetch big bucks.

This is pretty much the same frame and fork for £900.

If you think it's worth more stick it on ebay?

I don't know how much it's worth and that's the point of this post.
I've been around this forum for many years and know that the majority of users me included what to pay way below the going rate.

I guess the other question is; what size is it? Too wee or too big and you might struggle to find a buyer anyway. I assume the components have been stripped off it but once you add in wheels, tyres, cassette, brakes, mechs, levers and finishing kit you might get back nearer to the £700 or so but then this has no warranty so is immediately devalued.

£150 I reckon. It's the kind of thing someone might buy for a cheap build or hack. They aren't going to spend a lot.

There are so many bargains about on complete bikes low-mid end bike S/H values are crazy low.

For example, if you wanted a winter road bike with discs something like this: http://www.tweekscycles.com/Product.do?method=view&n=3286&g=1208511&p=1208522&d=124&c=4&l=2&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=Base&utm_campaign=Road%20Bikes&gclid=Cj0KEQiA25rFBRC8rfyX1vjeg7YBEiQAFIb3b-Wwi4I9SW7A-j-mX50JyJmkpjdQZSySwUlN3u0ZzeAaArv_8P8HAQ would be a better bet And, if you wanted to try CX racing on the cheap you could get this: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/raleigh-rx-elite-cyclo-x-bike-2016/rp-prod146263?gs=1&gclid=Cj0KEQiA25rFBRC8rfyX1vjeg7YBEiQAFIb3bzfqK379kXqq2JoAeRbnNAckRgNF3f8Duu6QN5VIIYkaAs8M8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds
