HOW MUCH????

Bit steep, but it looks mint.

Very punchy price, but very minty condition. Not sure it will ever sell for that, but there's always someone out there where that bike would be their dream bike. Love a yellow Bravado, it's by far the best colour for one, but not at that price!

All things considered, I have spent around £700 building my '92 Bravado last year.
So it really depends on how much you want to spend to get something as nice as this '92 Bravado in really good condition and a 16" frame to boot!
I don't regret spending what I did on my Bravado and would do it again if I wanted to.

Agree, you could find a cheaper one, but to get it up to spec you end up spending way more than you intended.

A lot of people on here got bikes/parts quite a few years ago when prices were loads cheaper and despite the current flat market, things are just more expensive than they used to be.

Looked at the Bravado again and you just need an OEM saddle that can still be found and that's it done if you ignore the newer Dart/Smoke tyres. Vs. anything modern is a bargain and actually very appealing in my eyes.

OEM GT saddles are rather hard to find in good usable condition, I have a Viscount branded one which is very close to the GT saddle, but with a more rounded nose. Velo also do one very similar, which I suspect is mounted on the Bravado in the original post.

I am quite late to the scene though so I probably ended up paying way more than I would have done many years ago.

nice. it's a bit much money but the bike is not easy to come by and especially in that condition. given it's not original but a respray and which looks very well done, they have invested some love and money in it.
