Help with value of Road Project...

[tom]

Hi,

I purchased a Yeti road project a while back and am considering selling it. I am a big Yet fan and sill have my trusty ARC 3.5. I just never warmed up to being a Roadie I guess. I would like some advice on what it is worth any information about it I should know before doing so.

Here is what I can tell you. The bike is like 52 or 53CMs and was supposedly ridden 1/2 a season by a woman for the Yeti team in 1999 or 2000. This woman sold it to the person I purchased it from who were college friends. I called Yeti with the SN but he could not confirm not deny the story. The SN is OR05451.

The bike is full Ultegra - I have added 42cm WCS carbon bars, Cinelli gel tape, and a 4 AXIS stem. Other than that it is all original. I just had the LBS install Conti 4-season 28s as well. Other than the everything is original.

I would appreciate any advice before moving forward with selling this. Thanks in advance for any information.

Hello! Quite a hard one top pop a value on. . . Yetis from this "interim era" are a matter of what people will pay. Have seen all sorts of prices largely dictated by the finishing kit. However, I am after a road project in this size, so I myself may be interested. . . and therefore it wouldn't be sensible for me to start driving the price! pop me a mail on 88888 at 99999 dot com and we can roll from there!

make that "**************************** dot com", sorry :oops:

I'm currently selling the same bike but want to make sure it's the right one. I found it while recycling in an alley...looked as if it was from a garage clean out but it has no stickers. When I looked up the serial # it said it was a yeti.Any way some one could give me an idea of what to ask for it?

No stickers- Post a photo and we'll tell you if it is a Yeti.
