Hi all,
I just signed up to the forum after I saw a few threads on here about the Saracen Addiction. I'm trying to figure out what to do with my old 2001 model with the 98 groupset. It's been 'well used' over the years when I used to ride and could really do with a full fork, shock, brakes, bushing, bearings, retapping a rounded bolt on the rear end and new bearings in the Deemaxes too.
Spec is:
2001 Frame with Risse Racing rear end
1998 Boxxers
Deemax hubs and rims
Hope DH4's
Middleburn RS7's with Goldtec chainring
Is it worth me embarking on a rebuild to get this back up to a decent sellable condition, or is it probably just worth breaking for parts and trying to get a bit of cash that way.
I know it's only a saracen, but maybe they still have an appeal as surely they were rare with a £3500 price tag!
I'll get some pics up later for anyone who's interested in seeing the beast!
Cheers!
