I was looking around on ebay for a particular bike when I came across this. Title is something like Rare Freeride Bike.... look at the bike... then the starting bid... 4,500 dollars??? That's gotta be a joke. Unless I'm not seeing something... I'd say around 2000 for it, maybe.

Look here

Ha that thing ain't worth 500 bucks.

C'mon Echo, it's rare!

What the heck is that seller smoking???

How come every time someone post a link to a bike on Ebay it has a 88 degree head angle.

It's rare for the same reason that strawberry flavored sausage is rare.

I think it's going for $4500 because of that totally kick ass Mountain Bike Action Lizard Skin that's on the rear triangle.

I have wanted for some time to have a "Dealer on Drugs" sticker printed to put on overpriced or misrepresented items I see in antique stores...

That has 0 bids for a reason. Might have been worth $2000 in like 1996.

Wow! I've got one of those sitting in my basement in pieces right now. If I had any idea it was worth $4500, I'd have sold it by now. Guess I better get to work building it when I get home...

This is the classic argument, "How much is it worth?" Vs. "How much can I get?"

He might have put $4000 into it although I doubt it unless he likes paying full retail with gratutities. But considering you can buy a new Enduro SX for about $3300, it is hardly worth $1500.

I was joking. This guy isnt with the times... prices for bikes go DOWN over time, not up.

You newbs (By that I mean current DH'rs who don't remember that stuff in the Ebay auction) will never understand how good you have it now-a-days

Viva la converted XC FS to DH!
