Hello im planning on listing my 4banger frame on ebay via my local lbs whom i have done a lot of business with.Im going back to a hardtail and plan on movng all my parts to another frame.Should i wait till spring or list it now?I need to thin the herd.I understand this is not a Yeti frame but it is an absolutely beautiful frame 2 look at.I have not seen one on ebay for a while so im not sure what to list at for reserve.Any pointers?
December 10, 2009 at 2:29 am #2412johnKeymasterIt’s not worth the hassle of trying to sell, especially if it’s a 17 inch.
Like Nathan said, the market is a bit sketchy this time of year. I know I haven’t really seen much in the way of 4 Bangers on the bay lately but if you haven’t already checked completed auctions (advanced search) it’s a good way to see what past auctions have done.
December 10, 2009 at 2:30 pm #24132manyschwinnsMemberi will post pics soon,im planning on including the fork.manitou x-vert.and brakes as the rear caliper is frame specific.im guessing a 17" but will check today.

Again if anyone wants me to go and check it out, I live in the area.
December 15, 2009 at 12:37 am #2420bikericMemberHey 2manyschwinns, I would be interested in a 17" banger frame. I am currently watching and waiting to bid on the yellow Straight 6 on Ebay,
but I would definately prefer a bass boat blue banger. I am relatively new to this site so I haven’t got everything down yet, but I have completed one transaction with "nathan". BTW nathan, do you have any pics yet of the Straight 8 build?
To anyone interested, I have a Schwinn Jersey and the Homegrown saddle available to any takers. I just tried the Jersey on and lets just say I need to ride my bike more. It is a size large Giordana. The saddle is not perfect. Its’ had a rump or two on it, but who knows, maybe someone here would be interested. Not sure yet how to add images. I’m using Mozilla Firefox, but the preview said something about Microsoft Internet Explorer. Is that the preferred browser?
