Voodoo
Mmmm... I like Voodoo's, my Bizango is the bike i ride most. Got an unused Bokor frame too

I have owned it from new, ridden it in many guises from long low racer to all day trail bike and singlespeed. If it is worth selling I will, if not then it will sit somewhere un used for a very long time as i cant take it with me when I move abroad for a few years work. Just seems a shame when someone with a little cash and sense of style could make it lovely again.
I've never quite understood why Voodoos are worth less than Konas, being as they're pretty much identical, but the fact is that they don't have quite the same reputation and they are worth less.
I think a Hoodoo is equivalent to a Cinder Cone/Lava Dome - made of double-butted generic cromo with a frame weight of 4.8 or so. Without seeing a photo, a spec list or knowing condition a proper valuation isn't possible, but subject to all that I'd guess £150 is tops and only if well-presented.
My other guess is that if you sell it now, one day you'll regret it.

I guess that means it's going in a loft for a few years. I couldn't sell the frame for as little as £50 there is too much personal history. Well presented it isn't - well used it is. Just thought it might have some kind of 'collectors' value being one of the originals. Would I regret selling oh certainly but finding somewhere to put it also presents a problem.
Thanks for your help everyone but don't expect to see it on a trail anytime soon.

I think the problem with Voodoo's is that everyone equates them with the 'sellout' to H*lf*rds and the fact that although the first range was States-built, the subsequent frames were Taiwanese.
Early frames should keep their value i would have thought.
The first catalogue was groovy
