What a way to welcome a new member! yes its sarcasm but "Don't take it too personally"The bicycle blue book value for this bike is $172. Due to the Covid bike shortages you could likely get near these prices on FB/CL, but this is a mountain bike enthusiast forum. There aren't any desperate parents trying to find a bike to ride with their kids because we all own bikes...because it's a bike forum. Don't take it too personally. But we can see your posting activity, which looks like you joined to sell covid-priced bikes, which is why you got mocked.
If you mountain bike and want to be a part of the community, that's great and nobody will hold these sales against you. But this is a forum about mtb that happens to have a for sale section, not a typical buy/sell FB group. All the best and GLWS.
Great 3rd post in a year. Your contributions to this forum are invaluable.What a way to welcome a new member! yes its sarcasm but "Don't take it too personally"
I'd like to add that if a well known member posted covid priced bikes on here they'd be mocked WAY harder. In fact, I think someone did that for a friend or as a joke and it was an hilarious thread.There’s been a trend of new members posting older bikes, at higher than usual prices, and members are having some fun with it. It may not come off well but I don’t think it’s meant to be mean spirited. Like was said before, Craigslist or FB marketplace is probably a better spot to sell them. Nothing wrong with older bikes, but their value is very subjective. Unless it is something rare or collectible, this is probably not the best place for it.
Kinda like... you don't shit where you eat.
Had the headshok too. All 88 needle bearings fell out. What a POS ! Replaced with a zoke bomber 80 mm of travel woo hooI had the Super V-1000 back in the day with a Headshock. It was da bomb in the '90s.
