D d8mok Gold Trader GT Fan Feedback View Dec 30, 2021 #1 Picked this up locally in quite a state. Stripped it down earlier and underneath the grime it’s fairly decent. Before I spend too long making it nice , what’s it worth once rideable? I know it’s not worth loads - Sora spec etc Attachments EA871C3A-B564-45D0-9487-5B5EE6D93A73.jpeg 567.3 KB · Views: 14

It's aluminium, so I can't see it as desirable, as anything other than a functioning bike. The steel Sunn mountain bikes from the 90s are lovely though, and the high end ones are sought-after.

FiveAlpha Retro Guru Dec 31, 2021 #5 It's definitely worth more than £20 if it isn't cracked. It's just not worth the same as a steel frame of the same era. It's nice, though.
