Hi
I have recently been given back one of my original mountain bikes from I think approx 1989/1990, by my sister, it needs some TLC so weird how suddenly it has been given back to me.
Scott Boulder (1989/90 ish, not sure)
Rigid Bike, Pink Frame with black seat tube and black rigid forks (nice Retro colours!!).
Tange Infinity MTB Cro Mo Tapered Double Butted Tubing.
Shimano Deore Groupset with Biopace chainrings and Shimano Deore "Light action" SIS Shifters.
Araya 26 x 1.5 Rims, gold colour if that helps.
X Lite bar ends.
Seat has disintegrated and although I have just stripped it and cleaned it, does need, I think New bottom bracket, brake blocks and maybe a chain.
Would not win a beauty pageant as frame has scratches and wear to a fair bit, but does look presentable. I can e mail pics if anyone wants to see.
My question is WHAT IS IT WORTH, as I do not have a clue, Thanks in advance.

Selle Bassano Modular Titanium
Only things I know about this seat is that it cost 140quid new
and the seat width is adjustable for those lard arses
It's an intresting seat nevertheless, i think one of the first to be Ti. Not as light as you would expect though.....
so what's it worth...
edit: just did a quick search and they still make em! A newer design of course..

Any opinions of this very welcome!
It's a 16inch steel frame, says Specialized, but it's clearly not. Has 'Reynolds' stamped into the rear dropout. Local bike shop just said it was probably a custom job, no idea of manufacturer though, nor it's age. Very recent paint job, and inside of seat tube looks fine. Shimano STX cranks, derailieurs and shifters. Alivio canti brakes, Shimano levers.
Brand new Quando wheels, brand new tyres.
Anodised purple bar ends!
Nice newish saddle.
What am I bid for this fine machine? Likely to suit someone 5'2 - 5'8 ish I guess; it's quite a small frame.
Cheers
Gareth
PS PLease note these pictures are not current - I've since put the proper wheels on!
