My Trm has been sitting in sheds for the last 24 years so i pulled her out and cleaned her up a bit , she is a bit rough around the edges but all original.
I wish they had numbered the frame and forks as i got them as soon as they came out .
Trying to get an idea of value on it as they don't seem to come up for dale too often.
My last post on this was taken down for some reason but i was not told why?

?? messaged a moderator about it but no response

?

Cheers , i was never very good on it so it never got much abuse.

That's super cool Brook

a proper British frameset, and quite rare now.

Not a lot needs doing to that, a nice new chain perhaps and swith those seat guts around and it looks good to go.

probably because it appears you are trying to sell your bike without a site supporters tag

nice bike btw

unfortunately if you are looking for a good return on this you are better splitting it and selling as parts.

Ah , i see sorry

i was just trying to get an idea of value.
I would not think of parting with her but with three children and very slow work at the moment needs must

EBay is best bet for selling it

sid1972 · « **Reply #19 on:** March 10, 2012, 08:02 PM »

part it out on ebay - the frame and forks will fly out, so will the rest of the parts sold individually. F/F and parts is were its at

full builds will never get top dollor.

You need to look closely at new school frames......when you do they are pieces of art!

deeman · « **Reply #21 on:** March 11, 2012, 09:05 AM »

Gashead · « **Reply #22 on:** March 13, 2012, 08:12 PM »

Robbo · « **Reply #23 on:** March 13, 2012, 08:15 PM »

Gashead · « **Reply #24 on:** March 13, 2012, 08:18 PM »

It pisses me off Rob, as we get slated for being heavy handed and this happens, it's the a piss take on folks that play the system fairly !
