Yeti FRO Pro, Accu-Trax, ATAC, Answer Manitou

[Owen_Slik]

Hi everyone, this is my first post here so go easy on me

I have a 17" Yeti FRO frame/forks that I'm looking to sell. I rescued it from the skip when I worked in a bike shop around 16 years ago. I planned to build this up but now I just don't have time to source parts and do the bike justice. It has sat in storage since then, it even has 16 year old dirt on it, but I'd like an idea of what it's worth. I'm pretty sure it's from around 1991/1992 with a later LX front derailleur.

17" Yeti FRO Pro (I think - according to the stickers which I'm sure are original). No cracks or dents.
Neon Yellow Accu-Trax forks
Neon Yellow ATAC Stem
Answer Manitou forks
Sugino Mighty Cranks and BB
LX front mech
Ritchey Seatpost

Any info is much appreciated!
Cheers, Owen

That’s pretty special. I’d love a retro yeti (have a modern) but prices now are far more than I’d ever justify for a bike not to be ridden.

There is someone on here who has a wanted advert up for one so you could maybe get an easy sale.

I suspect you'll be quite pleased that you rescued that!

Worth around 2k if not more.

Cheers! I do have a couple of other Yetis, an old DH9 and a DJ. I did want a small collection spanning 3 decades, but I just don't have the time to build this one at the moment. I'd rather it went to a good home than gather dust for another 10 years.

holy moly! I had no idea. Thanks. I'm open to offers though, just want it to get built and see the trails again really.

I'd say 2 large is a trifle steep.

Hi @Owen_Slik
Where abouts are you based?
Interested but would prefer to see it in person.

I need to spend more time looking in skips!

Price wise should be around £1.5K-£2K if no cracks or rust (BB shell would be place to look for rust).
Personally I'd clean it so it is presented as best as it can be.
