The reaction from @stefanano57 is because this is a VERY, VERY punchy price for a dirty (not cleaned as opposed to a snide use of slang!) mid-range bike. Can't see you getting £200 for this, yet alone £400. If you want to maximise your money, eBay is the place to go (especially if you list when they have offers on reduced fees). Spend a bit of time looking for completed/Sold Listings for Karakoram's and this will give you a good idea on market value. Posting will certainly help widen your audience and maximise your profit. Oh yes and clean it with lots of good details photos included FULL photos of both drive side and non drive side of the bike... and put the seatpost up to a decent height and this will also inform you and the potential buyer that it's not stuck!

Hi e.princey,

I'd echo 27Motorhead's comments. Your Karakoram looks in great condition and has some nice original components too. There are a number on eBay at the moment between £200-£400, but they have been relisted for a little while now....i.e. not being bought at that price.

If you want to get top dollar for it then you are going to need to make it sing. Clean it up and take it somewhere 'scenic' and get some great photos.

Good luck!!
