hi i dont know how much its worth...... but when you come up with a price id be interested, (price depending) let me know. cheers
Whad'ya think? I haven't even got a ballpark for this stuff, would like to shift the chainguide stuff as spares and the cranks are in pretty good nick. Would ebay garner better results do you think and is there a particular market i.e the states or germany that are building D/H retro rigs?
Cheers any help appreciated, need to start moving stuff :roll:

Fat Chance Buckshaver frame value.
Ok I have asked this before, but still not sure what I should sell this for.
The frame is a Fat Chance Buckshaver size Medium 1997 model for V brakes. 1" headset, 29.4 seat post size, 68mm English thread BB size. RRP was £700 if I remember correct, this frame came from Bromley Bike's, bought by me around the end of 97 beginning of 98 I think.
It is currently sitting doing nothing and will probably continue to do so for some time, so I guess I will ask, what do such frames usually go for second hand?
Chainsuck plates are there, headset and seatpost would be included. There was a cable guide pully which I have lost! It was optional and gave the frame more options with front mechs, as in instead of the top pull cable route you could use a bottom cable route mech if it was all you had, I may have this in one of my many blue RS skips!
I could add 1" Judy's and a Control Tech stem for a little more cash.
Condition is good, a few bits of cable rub, scrapes and chips to the paint as to be expected with a used bike frame.

Anyone hazzard a guess? Go on

Re: Fat Chance Buckshaver frame value.
well the buckshaver was the "cheapo" and the later fat chances are not that sought after (unless its a ti). nevertheless its a nice frame!
i guess you could achieve up to 250 euros on ebay with a proper listing and international shipping. i would not mention the zoom seatpost though as retrobikers tend to flee in horror at first sight
thanks for those pics. they make it a lot easier...sastusbulbas":3v0d6xt5 said:
