hi chaps im seriously thinking of breaking my track bike, is it best to list every thing first and see how many people are interested in parts before i start selling them?? or is that a bit rude, i dont want to be left with a bike with no engine for example or is that just the risk i take?? cheers
El T. is a masochist - go for it :smile: it's totally up to you cookster - is it a 748/996? - you could even ask us all what bits go for how much and which bits you will be buried with*. You probably know most of it already e.g. - rear subframe in steel* - 50p/ rear mono subframe in aluminium - phone ringing off the hook. 3 spoke wheels - can't give 'em away / later 5 spoke -£400 the pair if you're lucky etc etc.
Best scheme is to start a teaser campaign, use the word "seriously" so people know you're not the type who fucks about, and then the clincher.......list all the parts.......but with no fucking prices!! Genius see, they'll be flocking in no time!

I'm possibly interested in the front mudguard if it is bare carbon and also the Dymag wheels. How many teeth are the sprockets? I'm not thinking of buying them, I'm just saying it might be an idea to specify that. Cheers
