In Toronto people would sell that for at least 600-700. But then again you could pay that for a bag of rust in the shape of a bike in Toronto

very nice looking bike, same look I'm going for with my Stripper but black components instead of red. I would list it on CL for 500$ OBO and go from there... probly wouldn't take an offer of less than 400$ but yeah with that frame size the market will be smaller

I think in NoVA, you should have no problem selling that as a complete on clist for 4-$500. The amount of crap I have seen for that price makes your bike a quick sell imo.

A kid looking for a Republic bike won't see much value in that. But anyone who knows a bit about bikes would probably pay over $400.

Your cog is slipping.
Unless you're looking to unload it quick, I say part it out. It's a nice complete bike but you might get more for it piece by piece.

Good idea. I think I will get more parted out. Most parts are in pretty good condition. But I am kinda going away from the tarck look and I dont like the look of colored components.

Maybe you'll get more for parting it out. But, as Scrod says, it'll probably take you longer to get all your money.
I've had some parts for sale on craigslist for like a month. They've been selling... but at a very slow rate. Drives me nuts. I have very little patience.
