Hi, and welcome to the forum.

This is the same bike which is advertised on eBay at the moment, right? It's a 1998 model.

I don't recall them ever being over £6000 new (or £5000 as you stated on the eBay advert). In fact, bikepedia has them listed at $3,399 with the exact same spec as yours.

We're not supposed to comment on prices, so it might be worth having a search on the forum to see what other STS' have sold for. It looks like a great example of one, but I fear that you'll struggle to reach anywhere near your asking price.

Good luck with the sale anyway :)
 
hi , well thanks for youre notes. its a typo on my part at £6000:-(! it should be £5000, but thats what i paid in 1997 for it . or the equivalent in dollars, as i purchased it while over in the usa at the time.

cheers
 
U might wana search for a previous sts1 with spin wheels which sold recently on eBay for 1200 pound and was running top spec bits

Think u might be over priced on ur Sts bike
