1998 Homegrown XT small

This is the bike my daughter used during her High School MTB racing days.  That would have been in 2000, 2001 and 2002.  After that, it has been hanging in our basement and used, maybe 5 times mostly on a dirt road.  Some components were upgraded shortly after we bought it, but basically it is as it came from the factory.  It has a Zipp from hub, Raceface cranks and some other things you can see in the pics.  I have done a quick cleanup and although the brakes and shifters work, the cables are sticky and need to be re-lubed.  There are no dents, cracks or major paint chips.  I was thinking $1000.  8023733868

Clearly I have no clue re price.  Reduced to $800....or make an offer.

It looks like a sweet bike.  I could see getting it for my daughter, but I'm in Oklahoma.  Are you in Vermont?  Have much experience boxing bikes?

Hi Bikeric,

I have traveled extensively with my bike, but those trips were all with travel cases, but I have boxed several bikes and I'm sure I could box it so that it would get shipped safely and undamaged.  Yes, I'm in Vermont.  I have a good relation with a local bike shop so I have access to plenty of packing stuff. Happy to chat in more detail if you'd like.
