Gt and Proflex mountainbikes
Ive got these two mountainbikes. both where part of a trade. The GT I dot thinking id ride it. but alas after owning my classic 29er I cant do 26' wheeled mountain bikes anymore just dosnt feel right.
Any idea of what they would be worth?
This is the GT. Its got shimano deore everything. front derailure and crankset is LX brakes and everything else is XT plus some snazzy gold mavic hoops. its also very clean. I cleaned it after pics taken
This is proflex
Needs some work. Its also got decent parts minus thos grip shifters. no one likes those things.

The Avalanche was the second best aluminum hard tail in the GT line up. It could polish up nicely and probably could get $150 to $200.
The Pro Flex 854 wasn't the flagship model either, I believe the 853 was. The rear shock elastomer looks like it has had better days. However it does have some nice parts and would be worth more parting out. Girvin Vector fork looks like they go for $100+ on ebay and the Syncros seatpost goes for about $40.
There are companies that make elastomers, I believe they are $40 each. The people at BB on RetrobikeUK.com I think could point you to where you could find replacements
