Guy wants to trade me a mountain bike for my 71 super beetle. I need to get some idea of what his bike is worth. I love road cycling, but I know nada about mbikes.
Here is what I know from the owner:
To be completely honest...I'm not sure! I bought it off a good friend of mine who used to manage the Be-One team in Canada. I think the frame is a 2006 model year, but it was built up using whatever parts were left over from the team. I'm 6'3" and ride the bike no problem, though the frame is likely a Medium or Medium-Large.
The bike is a Be-One Woodbumble Plus with the following parts list:
Syncros Wheels - shop-built locally, still true and round Formula Hubs (including special wide rear hub, which I have spare rebuild parts for) Hayes 9 brakes
e13 chainguide
Manitou Sherman 1.5" fork
Manitou Swinger shock (both serviced by Manitou at Crankworx) Funn bar, stem, pedals, seat Thomson seatpost ODI lock-ons with Ruffian grips, Envy bar caps (can include either Ruffian, RuffianMX or Rogue grips) Sram X9 derailleur, cassette, chain, shifter New 100mm raceface bottom bracket not too long ago
Your thoughts?
