Bit of a mongrel, but here goes. I have this Reflex ALX 6000 I'm considering putting up for sale. I've been out of the scene for so long I really don't know what this might fetch nowadays. The frame's this eccentric sort of lugged Easton aluminum tubed thing, internal cable routing, machined...

These have now become superfluous due to my current bike sporting a 1 1/8'' headtube. Good usable condition but in no way pristine. I'd put this on a daily driver. Noticable chrome pitting on the right leg. The crown has some marks as pictured, the biggest gripe being that some doofus has...

Hi fellow retrobikers! There's a beatiful Carrera e-stay that I'd want to get but unfortunately the seller is unable to box it up and ship it to Finland for me. I'd be over the moon if some kind soul could help me collect and ship it over (I've used parcel2go before and they've been cheap and...

Hi lads! There's an interesting looking Kona up for sale locally. It appears to be a 92-93 Kona decalled Niihau. Having done some research I've found the Niihau was a Finnish special; higher end leftover frames were painted randomly and kitted out with mediocre kit and sold as Niihau, and...

Hello lads! It's been a pipedream for years now, but the bicycle hobo lifestyle is finally about to become a reality! :D This fall my fiancé and I are setting out on an epic bike adventure. Starting from our home in southern Finland we will ride through the Baltic states and eastern Europe to...

I'm going on a longer bicycle tour and need to clear out all the extra stuff, and so it is with a heavy heart I offer my lovely Gazelle up for sale. It's been sat in my living room for years and has seen very modest use (600-700km in total during the last couple of years), and only on the nicest...

Hi all! This Team FRS has been sitting in my basement all winter and I've come to realize it doesn't really "do it" for me, so on it goes to somebody who'll make it shred again! Bought this on a whim as I've never seen one of these come up over here before, but alas it's too big for me and I've...

I'm in search of a fork for my Clockwork to replace the RC30's I have equipped at the moment since I need to run fenders on it now! If you have one laying around with a threaded steerer please PM me! :)

I picked up this "work-in-progress" Marin Team FRS about a month ago in an excited impulse as I got it for next to nothing. I thought I would restore it over the winter but I'm slowly coming to the realization that that won't happen due to a lack of funds/interest in the bike :facepalm: I know...

Hi guys! I have an opportunity to snap up an old Marin FRS from 1995 for 100€, but as I'm not very knowledgable about old Marins I'd need your help ID'ing the model and figuring out if it's worth it or not. To me it looks like an aluminum frame, no? Any value in these nowadays? The elastomers...

Sorry

Hi, I've been shopping for my first road bike for a long time now and I've finally managed to lock my eyes on a late 90's (maybe '97?) Gazelle Champion Mondial AB but I'd like the input from you guys before I acquire it. I've tried to do some research on these Gazelles but since the subject is...

Hi, There's just come up a barely ridden Klein Attitude in Puget Morning locally, which I'm a bit amazed of really :D It's been in storage for most of its life but unfortunately that has taken its toll and the downtube has some nasty scratches. How much would you say it lowers the value of the...

This will be an odd comparison. Bare with me :D I'm looking to cross over from retro mtb's to road machines and I've been shopping around for something special for a while. Now I've narrowed it down to three candidates, so please help me convince myself on one of these bikes. Candidate nr. 1...

Found this monstrosity for sale locally and it looks quite retro and fitting on this forum. Does anyone know what it is and if it's worth anything? Cheers!

Hello guys, I'm new to this subsection of retrobikes (still looking to cross over from mountain bikes) and recently as I was browsing the web I found this interesting looking bike for sale locally. It's simply advertised as an italian road bike although having done some searching I came to the...

This should be quite an easy one to price, right? Found this rather nice Kona locally which I think would look stunning with just a few select upgrades, and I'm wondering if I should pay the 295€ he's asking? Personally I think it's a bit optimistic but these seem to be quite popular, so who...

I've always had a thing for obscure bikes from the past, but this time I think I've met my match. There's a guy selling this gorgeous Geliano on a local forum and I'm super tempted, but I'd like to know a bit about the history of the bike/company before I commit. Problem is I can't seem to dig...

I have a dilemma. Lately I've been getting more and more hooked on Sunn, and after I discovered a NOS 1998 Vertik 2 for sale in the back of an old bike shop a while ago I decided I need to get it. The problem is I've also found a Sunn Xircuit from 2004 up for sale, and I can't really decide...

Calling all Sunn connoisseurs! I'm about to purchase a NOS Sunn Vertik 2 from 1998 and this has gotten me interested in the history of the company. I know they're French and I've heard they've had a turbulent past, but that's about the bulk of it. I'd be delighted if you guys could shed some...
