1992 Breezer Lightning Pro - to go at £280

[OldFrank]

After a visit to the what is it worth thread and asking around etc. Seems 350 is fair.

18" BB to TT 22.5" Top tube length.
Fits me nicely at 6ft, not even got the seat pin at limit
Very much the orginal bike
Suntour XC Pro Kit
Girvin Flexstem
Ritchey logic saddle
Ritchey Forcelite bars
Suntour Micro-Lite Thumb Shifters
Hite-Rite
Ritchey vantage comp Front wheel.
Rear wheel has been replaced now a Mavic 230 Rim on a deore XT (parallax) Hub
Fork is original, but has been resprayed, badly.
All else works, little wear to cassette or chainrings
It's a bike right out of history!
Offers considered too!

If I had bought it from the guy who sold it on Gumtree, it would be a great markup. I got it a couple of stages down the line.

And it would only be a great markup if someone bought it

Re:

Couple of stages down the line in one week? Wish I could sell stuff that quick!

Lovely bike would love to add it to my collection, but out of my budget I'm afraid.......wish I had seen it on gumtree though!

Well, I had to chase it. Just for a nostalgic ride. But actually, I can't really afford it either!

Hi, is there any damage to the frame? are the seatpost and bb free moving? Just trying to work out why it was sold 3 times in less than a week and now your selling it!

And £50 to £350 is a huge mark up

Mark

All those things are just fine. I'm happy for inspection. Sold three times, but over more than 1 week. It was on Gumtree weeks ago. Sold so many times as we are all trying to make a fast buck, is my best guess.

Perhaps we should focus on whether or not 350 is a fair price. After all, if It was a barn find, would I be expected to sell it for pennies?
