[#6784015]

Was going to restore it but the frames to small for me:(
It's a Fire Mountain, paintwork look good from 2 metres although it's obviously could do with a re spray
Project Two forks
Original Araya wheels and exage hubs and tyres
Exage 300 lx group set and biopace sg crankset
Xt v's with deore levers
Lx 8 speed shifters
The rest of the bits aren't original but all functional

Please let me know what you think it's worth or where I could find out.

I can't imagine its worth much

I think my wife had that one. My memory is heavy plane guage tubing

I won't sugest a price as I'm not really in the know

£50 to £150 depending on the condition and that all in the frame.

+1 for retrobike. I have a lovely 1995 I think Kilaeua, and while I love it to bits and think it's still a lovely lovely bike, to be honest it's value to anyone else must be minimal...

£400 in 1992 for a Fire Mountain - my first mountain bike! Worth every penny...

paintwork look good from 2 metres although it's obviously could do with a re spray

So if you stand far away, it looks great, but it's actually ****ed?

I'm going to start using that. "From afar this could be an XC, trail, or Enduro bike, in fact, from far enough away it could be a road bike".
