Well you can get brand new complete sets for £150, considering adapters and rotors are about £60 worth I think £40-60 isn't a stupid amount!

For a full set used, I'd say £80 is about right. Without adaptors or rotors, no more than £50.

you can get brand new sets for 129, so as pointed out, they're not much use to someone unless they happen to have rotors and mounts for avid brakes. if buying these new, your brakes would have to be cheap!

are the spare sintered pads Avid ones?

Sorry no mate 🙁 New brakes are pretty cheap to be honest and the Juicy 5 is not a boutique brake.

if i included 160mm and 180mm rotors plus adaptors - what then?

£80 to £100 I would say as new ones are £130.

EDIT

Perhaps a bit more as the 180 rotor is a nice thing to have - new ones have 160/160 from what I know?

New ones are available with each of the different rotors sizes, it's generally £5 extra for a 180.

£80-£100 depending on condition.

Sold a full rear avid 5 via email - complete except rotor bolts, inc new avid sintered pads and service by LBS, only a minor scratch on lever, 1 year old... £35 is what I got. Also sold a full front brake, a little older (black version) but with new pads... £25. I wouldn't hold up for a lot of cash as there is a few deals on new stuff, plus a lot of used brakes on sale.

To put in perspective I managed to get a full new set of XT brakes with discs and new servo levers from LBS for £170 fitted (rrp is around £300).

meant ebay not email! oh and the brakes I sold had 185mm rotors front and rear which are about £48 new I hear, so I think £35 for a rear and £25 for a front complete was a bargain for someone - especially as the pads fitted were 1 ride old and cost £16 each end, no use to me though so I let them go.

Used bike kit is not a cash cow unfortunately - otherwise I'd be mint.

Something's worth what someone's prepared to pay. Unfortunately for you in this case the answer is; not much :-/

I paid £30 for a vgc Juicy 5 rear with split clamp, 160mm rotor & bracket, new pistons and caliper seals and new pads.
