Hey guys, cycled a lot back in the day
Got me an orange patriot lt
Here's a photo of it
My question is this, I've not ridden it in years, used to do a lot of downhill type free riding stuff so I built my bike to suit, now I'm all grown up and stuff I need less of a free ride bike more just cycling around type family stuff
Toying with the idea of selling it and buying something more cross country like, I have no idea what it's worth, cost well over £2.5k new all those years ago but in reality it's not really worth a great deal and I'll never be able to replace it with something even half as good
Do I remove the single chainring and downhill forks and pop a triple chain set back on and a single crown fork?
Could I offer it for swap, really want an orange ms isle (had 2 before this) but I know orange no longer make them and they seem to be few and far between second hand
Been out of the bike scene so long I have no idea what bits are good anymore
Any advice?
