trying to persuade my brother to sell his on one parkwood and get a complete full sus, rather than playing at swapping out frames etc.
hmuch do you reckon he could get for it? he bought it on ebay for a good price in un-used condition. he's not ridden it that much. it's X9, revelation, guide brakes kinda spec.
any ideas how much he should ask for it?

Couldn't sell mine with serviced recon golds, deore groupset and brakes, Thomson finishing kit, charge spoon, new tubeless tyres on shimano wheels for £300. So less than that.

Does he not enjoy riding it then? Will a full sus make a big difference to what he rides?
It's not going to fetch much unfortunately.....O-O were selling the frames for about £50 at one point.

yes he loves it, but it's too wee, and he could do with a full suss in the pyrenees

£400 May be optimistic I’d suggest, seen them not sell at £300. QR rear...decent enough frame but plentiful in supply and not entirely sure there’s a huge market. As ajantom suggests the frames were punted out for £50 for a while, the drivetrain and forks aren’t going to fetch much in their own right.

The 1st version with the 31.6 Seatpost was vulnerable to fails at the seatpost top tube join.

I have one, I enjoy riding it. But not rare and cheap as chips new
