Split it, it'll be easier to sell and you'll probably get more for it.


What bars are they ?   MarkyP is after some chrome Hutch Pro bars.

thanks for the heads up anyway andy!!!

Buy it and tweak it.  With the frame, forks, bars in place you can sell parts and switch things round to suit.  

If you get it and fancy some very nice black alloy hubbed tuffs for those wheels, let me know.

No worries Mark 

I'm cringing looking at that seat and seatpost on it, the rest of the bike is spot on.

not worth 750 i dont reckon...

lots of those parts have been made to suit and i would personally start from scratch with a frame and forks...

my two penneth anyway

Looks expensive compared to the blue one sold the other month on here.

[HUTCHMAN]

must admit,i think it's a bit steep too.

[jT Racing]

looks like frame forks and bars and a whole lot of nothing else. build your own

[bodamus]

Got to agree you would be better off buying yourself a decent Frame and Forks and building a nice bike yourself.

For £750 you could have something much better and to your own taste.

cheers, yes good advice in cold light of day its not cheap and on the other hand some of the other component could be better spec, so the search continues, thanks a lot

What JT Racing & Bodamus say ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 

[baldbmxer]

Way over priced for a hutch Pro Racer built with those parts
