[Closed] What's this bike worth?

A friend of mine built this up to supplement his full susser and single speed but a recent redundancy has forced a re-think and he'd like to shift it, ideally as a whole bike but doesn't have a clue how much it's worth, and neither do I.

The spec is:

Frame- 2000 Spesh stumpjumper (no disc tabs)

Fork- Rock shox Sid, no idea of year but hold air could still do with a service

Wheels - Hope hubs with Mavic D521 rims

Cranks - Middleburn Duo 27/42 Shimano BB

Rear mech - Shimano XTR

Shifters and front mech - Shimano XT

Front Brake- Avid mechanical

Rear brake - Shimano XT V brake with Avid lever

Seatpost and stem - Thompson

Bars - Easton.

I know valuations are subjective and i reckon he could get more splitting it but he can do without the hassle, so any ideas, even a ball park figure.

The whole bike is in excellent condition with many of the parts in new condition, especially the wheels, and the frame has hardly a mark on it.

Thanks.

£10.99, however if he can be tempted to leave that impressive looking saddle cover on it too he should be able to get circa £500!

£200-£250 maybe?

A fair bit more if split though!

What size it? Whereabouts are you? I actually rather like the look of that.

I'd guess around the £300+ mark on eBay complete.

Rough guess if split...
Wheels - £80 to £100
Forks - £60 to £80
Frame - Sub £100
Thomson bits - £50 - £60
Rear mech - £30
Chainset - £50+
Other bits - not a lot.

As other, a lot more split.

The problem with it, is no disc tabs, add to that it isn't retro so falls into an area with limited demand.

for the parts as the-muffin-man, except, Wheels, doubt they will get much more than £50, the Thomson seatpost, £40 on a good day, stem £20-30, RD £50-60, crank £60-80 Other parts can get a decent return, just make sure they are listed well

if you split/ ebay it make sure you set up to post to europe. V-brakes are more acceptable/ popular there i'm sure you would get better money for the frame 🙂

Split it as it would be shocking to only get crca £300 for it

TimP - yeah I got your mail mate but only just before i came into work so haven't had time to read it properly yet. I'll probably have to get the owner to answer some of your questions though so i'm afraid i may not have a reply for you until sunday.

Try www.retrobike.co.uk

They have a post 98 thread but you will need to put a price on it.
