Any idea on value of my 1991 Marin Palisades, saw a 1992 model sell recently for £190. Mechanically sound and standard except for tyres.

Re:
A lot depends on the condition of the bike. I paid £75 for my '96 Palisades a couple of years ago but it was in very good condition and, importantly at the time, not a project but ready to ride. I think £75 was close to top whack for a Palisades at the time. Since lockdown, prices shot upwards and £190 for a '92 model is very believable, although at the top end price-wise, I expect. However, prices appear to be slowly settling down now. If it's going on eBay, I would put it to auction with a £75 starting bid and see how it goes. If it's a fixed price sale, you could try £150 in current conditions if the bike looks tidy.
