Off road toad

[Jenn]

Can anyone help me? I'm looking for any information on today's value of an off road toad. I believe its all original parts. It's a 20 inch frame, with green and yellow camouflage paint. Although Im not sure of the year it was made.

Toads can be sold for about £150 plus shipping to the UK and my address.

But you may get a lot more in Germany if the noise around a recent sale was anything to gauge interest by.
In Canada they're more common and you'd want to get some better more detailed pictures and hit the Canadian Bike Facebook group (I think they may have had a forum at one point, but maybe I just think they should have)

It has everything a turn of the 90s bike should have.
A flex stem
Bar ends
Switchblade style forks.
Hightrite direct mounting point. (aka dropper in the modern world)
Rear U-Brake
Built in Mt Zefal pump storage
....

I think it is more a 1989 bike, that is a fillet brazed bike by Derek Bailey at Rocky Mountain (at the time)
You can get quite some pennies/cents for it

One of the perks of having a local reputation for caring about these old bikes is every so often, someone seeks you out for advice or help finding a home for their vintage mtb. And once in a rare while, that bike happens to be something special...

Yeah, missed that one 2 weeks ago. Was only 10Km away from me, here in GER. Could eat myself...
At the end is was at around 1700€. The complete bike with Accu-Trax, IRD stem, Cook cranks - for example. So, it was very good equipped!
That's a clue...

As the title says, something happened to me that I thought was impossible. I couldn't believe it. Some days ago I discovered an Offroad Toad in the local classifieds.....insanely good price, not even an hour online, less than 5 views and after a few really nice messages with the seller and...

No I haven't sold the bike, I'm still researching the value of it, meanwhile I'm cleaning it up and getting it prepared for more photos, seems there's lots of interest in it. I'll post more pictures as soon as possible.
