bennett 26" 3 speed girls bike.

Can anyone shed some light on this bike. my mums had it since the early 70's.. has been in the qshed for the past 15-20 Years. Anyone know what it'd be worth? Is in pretty good nick, few minor scratch's and needs a new gear cable. apart from that its a great bike, even the old gyro for the head light works perfectly.

In the USA, as-is the bike may fetch $25-$60. It would be worthwhile to clean it and wipe down the frame, wheel rims, and fenders with WD-40.

That kind if bike is $125 in my hood. Find a wicker basket and strap it to the bars and its a $150 bike. Add a great story about your mum, priceless.

I would say super clean with everything in good working order including light $100-125 in the US, if the 3speed or light aren't working right you can figure half that. It is womens 3speed and there are just a lot of these out there in great condition and not a huge market so even realy great one don't go for a lot.
