Nothing wrong with Balance. It is what it is. Mid level, Taiwanese-made suspension frame from the days when people knew next to nothing about making a suspension frame. Pro-Forx, by the time they were adapted to rear suspension use shown here, were actually owned by Answer and sold as a slightly less expensive alternative to the Manitou forks.

There's some kooky retro value there in that bike. It'd be a fun little project to hump around on for a while. Give it a go if the price is right.

I think I will,

Just need to try and make contact weith the owner now and persuade them to let it go

Should i be looking at offering any more than £100? for it? :?

or is that just a rude low-ball offer

I'd say that's more than fair. I might even start lower, but then you run the risk of insulting them and then wrecking the deal altogether. Certainly don't go higher than 100.

Thanks bud,

The waiting for contact to be made has commenced.........

Im pretty good at kicking folk in the stones regarding valuing their stuff,
I sell cars for a living and booting folk in the balls is part of my daily routine.

I like a good haggle I do
