Looking to pay, maybe £300 maybe £350 would be good. Looking to sell, let ebay be the judge.

You could get something easily comparable for around the £500-£600 mark new now, so I'd say £250-£300 tops.

i had the very same bike... for two months before it folded in half on me.

and i paid £640 new and got a pint from bought for me by the bikeshop. 🙂

the fork is pants and BLOODY heavy. it broke a little while after i put it on my new frame. the rebound springs back silly fast and the lockout....well it doesn't.

i'd have thought 300-ish. old split it. the frame is relatively light and racy.
