I agree with David. Actually, you've got a lot of nice bits on there. If you're really trying to maximize cash in pocket, a lot of that stuff will bring more as individual pieces than they will on the bike. That assumes you have the stomach for ebaying all that stuff. I used to, but I don't anymore. The dirtdrops aren't the only interesting bits on that bike. I assume the Ritchey "Microdrive" is a 94/58 bcd crankset or is it the 86? Those make great doubles (think 45/28 coupled with a 12-28 in the rear) and are hard to find these days. I'd buy it if you stripped it off. Any SIS 8-spd is getting harder to find, so the shifters may be interesting to some. The UN-71 isn't made anymore. Only the heavier 5x. If there's life left in that, you could sell it easily. King headset, fancy hubs, the older xt derailleurs, 986 brakes: jsut good stuff to have around in your parts bin or easy enough to unload for reasonable prices. I bet if you stripped this bike down you could make more and likely sell off a bunch of this stuff on the RBW or BOB list pretty easily. And you wouldn't have to deal with ebay. -- John Speare Spokane, WA USA http://cyclingspokane.blogspot.com/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
