I have a 1992 Diamond Back Axis Pro that I will be looking to sell. Trouble is I know nothing about bikes. Where do you think is the best place to advertise it and what should I be asking for it?

Im no Diamond Back expert, there are others here who are, no doubt, far more qualified to cast an eye over this. That said:

Firstly, I hope it's not being ridden with the rear wheel quick release like that.

Second, hopefully that gear selection has not been used very often - premature wear on the drivetrain.

Thirdly, originality is king to many. This doesn't look to have many, if any, original components left.

Decent bike in its day but the market is currently on it's knees. A bike like this MAY / MIGHT fetch £100 - £150.
One offered here, that was more original and better condition, struggled to sell for £150 recently.
