How much is this bike worth?(2 posts)

How much is this bike worth?Fabulous

I'm not trying to sell this here- I just don't know how much I could get for it, so I'm not even sure it's worth selling in the first place.
Here are the specs. All parts are 2001. The bike was custom built and maintained by a shop mechanic, and literally tuned after every ride.
Silver Azonic DS1 frame w/ red Manitou SX-R fork
LX cranks/BB/shifters/derailleurs, teflon cables/housing, Kore Chain Reactor chain tensioner
XT cassette and SRAM PC-99 chain
SRAM disc convertible hubs laced to mavic x517 CD rims w/double butted DT spokes and gold anodized alloy nipples, blue Salsa skewers
Avid SD7 levers, SD7 rear brake, CPS mechanical front disc w/teflon cable and housing
black Kalloy Seraph seatpost (much better quality than the Uno line, butted 7000 series Al and lighter than Thomson) and Selle Italia Oktavia saddle w/ blue Salsa seat skewer
blue FSA UF orbit headset, Profile Design Stiffy stem, Bontrager Crowbar Race handlebar, grey Oury grips
Bontrager Revolt Super-X tires
No pedals
Thanks in advance for the input, I built this up for XC then ended up getting into trials and so I never ride it, except to commute to and from school, which is obviously a waste. It's only seen the trails once, and a few hours worth of urban assault. Everything's in very good condition, except for a few cosmetic scratches on the frame and crank. Drivetrain hasn't even begun to wear yet.
Thanks-
Nick

...and I'd buy it from you if I had the cash. I would try about $800 to maybe even $1000. If all the parts on it are in as good of condition as it sounds, you could get some good cash off of it. Did I mention that's a really nice bike? I absolutely love Azonic frames. Since I can't see the bike, I can't give an accurate estimate, but even ask your LBS and they might give you a price that's in the ball park. Good luck and make sure you find a good, loving home for your DS1. She deserves the best.
