orange 5 for sale Options

[mtb*dog]

Finally decided to sell my beloved orange 5 pro (2008) as it is hardly being used anymore with family and job commitments.
recently fitted a load of new parts in nov 2011; fsa mx headset, rock shox sektor rl forks, avid elixir 5 brakes, new stem, new chain and casette, middle and inner chain rings, token alloy jockey wheels with tiramic bearings. Only been used on three out of the seven stains since!
Also features hope pro 2 hubs, michelin tubless tyres on mavic 317 rims (getto) and hope stainless bb.
obviously there are a few chips cable rub etc, as it was well used before i became a dad and bloody windscreen fitter!

Anyone on here interested, or suggestions on what it's worth, i rekon £1200!!!

Blimy- I'd have that off you myself if it wasn't too big for me. I'm sure you'll have no problem selling it, but have a good think about it matey! Unless you're totally strapped for cash it's not going to do harm sat in the garage and then when the long summer evenings come you may be able to sneak out and have a few mid-week blasts to give you a break from all those commitments

Why not sell the hardtail and keep the Orange? Just a thought.

Commiserations, or congratulations, depending on how you look at it

I will be sad to see it go, however i have had no contact from the buyer as of yet, hope they are not timewasters as the fees were £70

I think you can get that back if the buyer are a non paying bidder

Mtb*dog,

perhaps its just fate.. the bike wants to stay with you. You've seen herbie have'nt you?

I can confirm 100% you can get your money back. IF the bidder does not buy it, its his loss. Looks like a really nice bike.

heard back from e-bay today, they said i will get a final value credit and i can re-list the bike after 25th feb.
some muppet contacted me and offered me £800 cash, i've a feeling it was the origonal bidder with a different user name.

Had a good look what's on offer at the mo and found a brand new in box 2011 orange 5 with sektors and elixir 5's for £1800, so perhaps £1200 for a well used 4 year old one is a bit too much?

[mtb*dog]

£1k now or a reasonable offer if anyone is interested?
just thought i'd ask before i put it back on e-bay

Got my final value fee credited but the robbing bar stewards still took £37 fees out, despite me e-mailing them and asking that it be credited/re funded

[SuperJJ]

Is this bike still for sale?

Not for me, for a friend but will pass details on if it is.

Cheers
