I know these are frowned on but I have tried to gauge the value unsuccessfully so far.

I built a Cotic Soul in December but a change of plans means I NEED to sell.

I'm loathed to pay ebay fees so regard that as a last resort. Anyone care to comment on realistic asking price for this?

Frame
Medium Mark 3 Frame with Tapered steerer tube.
Finished in Cotic Orange.
Fitted with Hope pick & mix headset.
Frame has been helitaped with Invisiframe.

Fork
Fox RLC 120 in Black.
Factory spec FIT cartridge.
15mm axle.
Also fitted with Invisiframe kit

Wheelset
Latest Hope Pro 2 Evo hubs (40T rear) on Stans Arch EX Rims (15mm F & 135x 9mm or 10 mm Bolt thru R).Fitted with Maxxis High Rollers.

Transmission
11-36T Rear cassette, Deore Crankset (2 x 10), Shimano Clutch Mech & Deore Brakes (160mm x 2)
SLX 10 speed shifters
XT 2 x 10 Front mech

Finishing Kit
Easton Haven ( stem 70mm bar 711mm & 400mm post).
Hope Seat QR, Hope head doctor, 10mm Bolt thru rear QR all in Black.
TI railed saddle
ODI TLD grips
Shimano DX pedals

Its all brand new unridden apart from pedals grips and saddle.

Thoughts please

General rule...
50% of purchase price for the lack of any warranty, probably best to split.

Also never tell people you are desperate to sell another 10% off.

If you decide to split it, I might take the frame, headset, seat post, seat QR and rear axel.
But would depend on price!

Unfortunately it's not brand new as that comes with warranty and manufacturer's support. Trying not to be a pedant but it's a big difference.

If you want to flog it you should probably move over to the classifieds.

About £800 I'd say IMO if it was mine I'd take wheels off an keep them an put some cheaper wheels on an sell for about 700 on eBay
