Title: value of 855
Post by: downhil on May 25, 2004, 05:22:30 pm

i just picked up a proflex 855. it is completely original with the exception of velociraptor tires and an avid tri-align rear brake.  this thing is in absolutely showroom condition....flawless.  its beautiful.  xt shifters, brakelevers, ft. der, rr. der; lx ft. brake, hubs; sugino impel crankset, 747 pedals, mavic 238 rims. vector fork.  trishock saddle.  upper rear mcu is mushy.  other than that....perfect.  its unreal.  what do you experts think its worth?  what do they usually get on ebay in 'new' condition?  thanks for any info.

Can you tell me what size it is?  Does it have elastomer shocks or springs?  Were they changed to Gold ODS units or are they the friction dampers?  

I can give you a better answer to its value when I get that info, but probably about $350 USD.

its an 18".  elastomer shocks, not ods.  again...not a scratch on it.

I would guess about $300 USD.  But if a serious collector wants a "new" 18 proflex, it may go for more.  take some really good, close pictures and list it up for either 7 or 10 days.  That would probably be your best bet.  If you want more $$, selling the pedals seperately might help.

Where are you located?
