davidbarr Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hahaha! Saw this the other day. It is obvious that no research whatsoever of the value of the bike has been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Gibbs Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I actually laughed out loud at that! Wasnt the (slighty) better specced "official" onza T-rex about £499? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I think it's commendable, and I hope some unknowing f**kwit who hasn't done their research buys it! Then I hope the son who's Dad gave it to him for Christmas comes on here saying its better than whatever's selling for £400 on here because it was more money. I will giggle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
err Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 bargain! did anyone see the mission 26 for 800 a couple of months ago? i'd love a set of those top of the range forks lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Well I tried to help the guy out but... never mind lol Hiya mate. Just letting you know that the bike will never ever sell for £750. It's a very outdated model with basic components on it. You would struggle to sell it for £250. The trials market adapts and changes dramatically quick. Hope you don't see this as a dig, was just more to help you sell the bike quicker!! Dan. already had offers in excess of £500. Been selling bikes for years so I know what i am doing. There are loads of people out there that sill want 26 inchers Who the f**k has offered him over £500!!!

kaybs41282 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Selling bikes for years? Surely he should have learnt something about valuation then.... div Edit: funny that he thinks by "outdated model" you meant 26" wheel Edited December 20, 2011 by kaybs41282 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Maybe he means he's been trying to sell that bike for years? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkman Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I cant be arsed but some one should work out what the cost of that new would be...seen them frames on ebay CHEAP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 All I can tell you is rocknroll were selling the Hitman which is basically the same but with Vs for £250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 A bike is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it, just like any other product or service. Don't be jealous that this guy is willing to anchor his price higher than you would, and thus attach to it a higher perceived value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Dale Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 (edited) im gonna bid on it soon as i get home a rough estimate for everything brand new would be below £600. good luck to him!

J.KYDD Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Its ridiculous! Considering you can pick a bike like these up for £600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I messaged him last night, he insists he has receipts for over £600 from building it an the brakes were £160 alone from a reputable trials shop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew_coggan Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I think the guys got the rite idea, if your new to trials and dont know oat about it and have a few quid to spend, you will see the price and think its a good 1, so yeah someone will be getting robbed, but its there own fault for not doing there research. He will just benefit from divs lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Dunstan Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 It won't sell. I've put bikes on Ebay which are high spec, and they never seem to go past £500. If he gets away with it then lucky him, but I'd feel sorry for the poor lad who falls for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 I think the guys got the rite idea, if your new to trials and dont know oat Hopefully this will clear things up a bit 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 UH-OHHHH Whos been naughty then? lol i am looking at the box that the rear came in, as I don;t have the front still,but it says its an HS33, and I brought these from a reputable source, because I had to buy the 4 bolt mounts and not use the quick releases and canti mounts because the T rex only has 4 bolt or Disk mounts. They told me that the HS11 and HS33 do not come with 4 bolt mounts as standard. I only build bikes as a hobby, I have all the receipts for this bike and it has cost me £600, the Magura were over £150 on their own. I have a 100% reputation on Ebay, but the abuse I have taken over this listing is going to be reported to ebay, not that yours will be one of those. I appreciate your comments but I am very genuine and appreciate your comments even if I am particularly upset about the rest of the comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 He states the frame is disc compatable. Its not. Check out his clever use of two bolt magura clamps being used as 4 bolts clampms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Oh yeah just noticed that!! I'm not sending him another message, as funny as this is, don't want to get a bad name on eBay !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
