Right it's time for a change and I'm not sure what to do with my current bike, sell it complete or break it up? Obviously want as much cash as possible towards the new steed but just wondering what you would do. Current bike is a Marin Wolf Ridge 6.7 as here:

Changes to the original bike as follows

SRAM X9 shifters
SRAM X0 rear mech
Shimano SLX brakes
Rockshox Reverb Seatpost

Looking forward to opinions!

Cheers

Lee

    What's up with what you've got to make you want to change?

    It's always been a bit on the small side, it weighs a tonne and I just fancy something new ;-)

    Stick the frame up for sale, if you can sell that then the rest should be easier to shift and hopefully you'll make a bit more money than selling it as a whole bike.

    Definately split it.....also means you can keep any parts that may be better than on your new bike and sell them on instead!
