I can vouch for this bike. It is even nicer in the flesh. And in case you're worrying Jon's a newbie selling. he's a friend of mine, so fear not.

How about 1000?

Re:

upto you its your bike, the sum of all the parts including the frame is probably worth around 950-1000 but complete bikes usually sell for less. good luck!

wow... team bike!

Almost, but it's most likely never seen a pro riders bum... No offence

In 1999, the top three 'GT tech shop' frames, namely the Xizang, Zaskar LE and XCR 1000 were all available in this team livery and finished with a spec very close to that of the team riders bikes (M952 XTR, Mk1 Crossmax ceramics, Green Wildgrippers, Azonic, Thomson etc...) but were regular models available to the general public rather than actual 'team issue' bikes, They went under the 'Team' moniker and subsequently featured in the regular product line up as the top end models for that year.

All very nice bikes and they do look fantastic in the flesh/metal? I absolutely love my Zaskar LE Team, and for the right price would love to expand on that collection of bikes with a Ti model

Just out of curiosity, what's the story with the Judy/Sid hybrid? and what are the wheels on this as they're not the original Crossmax ceramics? Do you have any more pics of the bike? as I really think it will help your sale... As well as a price reduction... Around £750 might peek interest, especially if you're looking for a quick sale.

Sorry for all the questions and please don't be offended by my opinion on value, Just goes with the territory when trying to sell bikes to enthusiasts.

BTW... GLWS dude

Re:

Hi
Love that you are a GT fan.

The SID/Judy combination is from when I worked at Caratti sport.
It was seen by the Rock Shox technicians as the best option.

This bike was built up by me as a frameset only, I never used the wheels as this was a "stock" item. Instead I used XTR hubs with Mavic rims.

Splitting it out is a bit of a pain but may be worth it if nobody bites!

Re:

It is the sad truth sometimes that the only viable and most profitable way is to split, Generally though with a high spec bike there's always something that somebody wants and subsequently can be gone in bits in no time versus waiting for that one buyer.

On that note... I'll register my interest now for the frame

And... Probably should check what size it is also
