What did your build cost bitd....pre 2000 bikes only,anyone worked it out and if so are you ashamed of it :oops: :lol:
 
My Rocky Altitude back in 1992/3/4 was valued at ~£3.3k
multiply that by ~1.5 to get that in todays money.

But did it cost me that much to build ;)
 
first super vee was £2200 bitd
2 zaskars at £1700 and £1500

my mates pace (now with GTSTEVE) cost £2475 to build bitd
 
about £1500 min as i kept changing my mind on different parts later :oops: :lol:
 
I didn't really keep an eye on the bear valley cost but I don't think it would be to bad, I might work it out :D the airborne however ... :shock:

WD :D
 
I paid £300 for the Timberline FS. The Manitous cost about £230... Spent another couple of hundred over the years on bits and pieces for it.

and apparently the Saracen cost about £350, it was a saddle away from being original when I got hold of it.
 
I bought my scott frame for £1300 in late 1996

over the next year I spent about £3300 to finish it :shock:

As it stands now it was about a £4800 to build it c1996/1997 :cry:


My marin is about 3500 1997/1998 to build,I was doing some sums the other night and it is frightening......thank god for the interweb I say,brings prices down a bit...and the march of time helps a bit too :lol:
 
£601 for the Cinder Cone (1993) another £600 on upgrade parts later in '93 (or could've been '94)
