FS Bike Value
 

I'm not sure where to post this but what does everyone think the value of a well maintained Porsche FS mountain bike would be?

Probably around $2k +/- if it's mint. Personally though, I'd rather have a nicely equipped older (pre-Trek) Klein. Oh wait, I do!

2 k for a bike??? a real bike , you know with no engine?the sorts that requires muscle power?!?!?!? the world has gone mad!

Pinarello Dogma Ego

$16250 :)

I spent a little over $2k on my new road bike, and I don't regret it one bit. People spend lots of money on trivial things like cigarettes, lottery tickets, and Lite beer. At least I get some mental and physical therapy for my bucks. :)

Vented disk brakes, carbon fiber, titanium, fully adjustable active suspension. There are just as many things to blow money on with a mountain or road bike as there are on a 911 (except you get more for your money with the porsche).

The world hasn't gone mad, the whole damned universe is INSANE!

Here's my little piece of the insanity ..... carbon, kevlar, titanium, active suspension ...... F1 technology for a couple grand? That's not insane, it's a bargain!! :D

Curt,

I should have known you would have a tricked out bike in Porsche colors with decals. Looks great!

Are you riding that on an indoor trainer and getting sweat all over it?

Yeah, it gets a little sweaty ..... it's actually a K2/Pro-Flex but - of course - I had to strip the graphics off and put a couple of Porsche stickers on it. :D

Hehe, another bike thread invades off topic. Just got back from the shop buying an early birthday present - new handlebars (Easton EA70) to replace the noisy Cinelli's on my bike.

To price your bike - search to see if any are being sold. The internet is a big place.

That one is the "S" model. The "FS" (fully suspended) is quite a bit more spendy. I doubt that guy will get over $1000 for the "hard tail" version.


Oh, and nice bike Curt!

Here's a gratuitous pic of my pedal toy:
