Thoughts on sale of "Retro" bike

coopertrooper2001

Hi All,

I have a 1997 GT Avalanche, Ali frame, Indy SL forks, Mavric rims, decent hubs etc, although no disc brakes. WTB saddle (kevlar corners), X-Lite handlebars that I am looking to sell in advance of getting my new bike.

It is in good condition for its age. It had a full service last summer (all cables and brake pads replaced) and has been ridden about 8 times since then.
Frame needs a machine polish to look good.
Rear gears jump around a little bit - may need a new chain, although bike shop thought it was ok.
The front gear shifter is a little iffy.

Is it worth selling this kind of setup complete or worth splitting it? The brakes, shifters, deralliurs etc are worth nowt I guess, but maybe the forks and frame are worth a few quid?

Any thoughts on value?

Thanks.

We can't give values as per Rule 15 - but try RetroBike, might get a good price for that as has a lot of original bits.

I have seen the forks fetch up to £50 in mint condition.
