waybe2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) I am looking to trade my bike for the echo hifi but neither of us really know what our bikes are worth. So that we both get a fair deal we are both looking for advice to if any money should be added to either bike. So my bike is an 09 zoo lynx forks are echo not sure on year 150#35 tms stem onza bars or flat bars 160 echo cranks with echo bash plate wheels are trialtech rims on trialtech hubs rear is non disc with 1 grind front is disc with no grind not sure on ffw but it has a high number of ep creepy crawler tyres front and rear brakes are 05 hs33 front and rear. Will post pictures soon Edited October 8, 2014 by waybe2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How Original Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Agreed, I'm not really too bothered as long as we're both happy with the swap. But then again, you don't want to swap with someone, then come to sell your bike and find out it's worth about half what the one you swapped was lol. If mines less value or his is, then we can be fair and swap a bit of cash too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Filo Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) I'd do it in person, to many people have issue with posting swaps. If you guys are meeting up, take some tools and check everything over. Like rounded and missing bolts. These can give a lot of issues down the track. Parts are parts, bikes are only as good as they are assembled. This is from my experiences in swaps. Edited October 6, 2014 by Filo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waybe2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 We are doing a swap in person so that's not a problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How Original Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Agreed, I wouldn't do a swap via posting, simply because I don't expect someone who doesn't know me to trust me, and vice versa... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waybe2014 Posted October 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 As promised some pictures of my bike. I will bring both sets of bars so you can pick the ones you prefer https://www.facebook.com/wayne.sellers.357/media_set?set=a.10152755576008256.1073741828.536833255&type=1 hope that worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How Original Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Anyone? Just a rough idea of value of both bikes? Then one of us doesn't end up out of pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 I wouldn't say one was worth vastly more than the other, so would say just call it quits, don't f**k about and just swap them straight up. Less hassle for everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less hassle for everyone We kinda thought the same, but again, I just didn't want to end up with a much more valuable bike for mine, or vice versa don't like feeling like I'm ripping someone off lol.
