Kona AA....

hiya, this is just a tinny bit too big for me, so it's out.


It's a grey coloured Kona AA in easton Elite tubing, centre to top it's a 20"
there's an xtr bb in at the minute
the condition is excellent, very few chips and a tiny bit of rub on the 1 1/8th headtube.

So....what do y'all think i should ask for it?

This has been a fantastic bike and it's taken nearly £2k's worth of bike to make me move (Cannondale Carbon Synapse 105 flat bar with lots of aftermarket carbon bits). I'd take other bikes out - ie new Bad Boy, Trek District etc and get back on this and think that this was better so no point changing. It's been a fast, reliable commuter. The brakes are fantastic, the gears never need adjusting, it all just works. I've had mudguards, lights and a thudbuster seat post on it - it's also been very comfy.

Mountain Cycle Shockwave and San Andreas

Hi

I have to sell my husband's Mountain Cycle Shockwave and San Andreas
downhill bikes.
Not sure what year they are from, maybe mid 90's?
He has owned them both from new and they haven't been used that much - I think he fell in love with the style!
Not used for about 10 years, stored in a dry garage.
Frames are in still very strong - no cracks etc. Tyres are definitely shot but I'm not sure about everything else - it all worked when last used!
I have no idea what they are worth - any suggestions would be useful.

Here are some photos of the San Andreas:

Yeah they are beautiful looking bikes. We don't want to sell them but we haven't got the room. :cry:
I just think it's a shame they're not getting used.

i'd reckon 4/500 each
but there's a recession on so things don't reach the levels the should

 

[big.eck]

i'd say the san andreas has got to be about the £500 mark and the shockwave around the £650 mark Lizzyd

both beautiful looking bikes btw
