eh, i think older full suspension bikes are generally crap, because so many improvements have been made in suspension/frame design.
you could probably find a decent old hardtail for the money you would put into servicing the shocks.
i could be wrong tho…
an 853 lemond zurich frame in good condition with headset carbon fork. looks super clean.
^size?
i am interested.

yeah pretty much this.
there are NO parts available for gt rear suspension- bearings, bushings, the like. usually shit goes all creak city. (used to work in a shop that was a gt dealer before gt went to walmart bikes)
not as sure about the roxk shox fork, but looks to be a low end elastomer model one, so probably no parts available.
uhh, so if you could get 300 for it i’d do that and run.
Sold one of these for $300 I think in spring last year.

Would an 853 Buenos Aires go for a similar price?
A Schwinn Tempo with Colombus Tenax in really good shape, full 600EX group, and newer wheels.
Wazzit worth?

$200-300 max. I have gotten that locally for a Tenax Schwinn ready to ride with nice paint and a full overhaul. If it needs work or an extreme size less $$.
I have this Lemond Zurich 61cm frameset (NOT the rest of the bike) sitting in a garage. New in box. It was too big. Worth?
Geo from VS:
i have no idea other than its about 1cm (tt) too big for me…
You need to stop even thinking about buying bike stuff…
you don’t know my life!
Your stickers are on the way!
my bike is about to look awesome

It’s $120 with extra parts. Going to snag it this weekend, I am trading him some parts I have no use for for the bike, so all is good. hanks man.
how much should I offer for this? he’s asking 160.
it has velocity hubs as well. are the velocity hubs good?
Velocity 700c Deep-V (clincher) Wheelset (8,9,10 spd Freehub)
Color: Black
32 spokes (will accommodate larger riders)
New Tires 700x23
Nashbar Skewers Included.
Wheels are true
Clincher- Smimano Free-hub 8-9-10speed
In Good Condition
Velocity = formula (hubs), right? That should be solid and reliable.
I might do 100-120 if they have low mileage on em. Otherwise this is a similar product but brand new for 150: http://www.bicyclewheelwarehouse.com/road/700c/riders-232-or-less/mavic-cxp22-2200-silver-road-bike-wheels/prod_28.html
thanks for the link toast.
how tough are the cxp22’s? i live in detroit, where the street’s are unplowed and full of crated sized potholes… that’s the reason i’m looking at velocity’s for my commuter/road bike, cuz i’ve had em on my single speed and it took a car going 45 to wreck em.
shimano 2200 hubs spin real good?
gonna try to bargain those deep v’s down maybe. thx.
I have CXP22 to 105 hubs on my cross bike with no issues (bought used too) and my other cross wheels are Mavic MA3 to shimano 2200 and they’ve been fine too.
Come to think of it both cross wheelsets including tires cost me all of $200, I heart used stuff.
scrub,
thanks. found this on ebay:
Mavic CXP22 Custom Built 700c Road Bike Wheels Wheelset Formula Hubs
for $139 shipped.
Might just do this. thanks!
