I'm afraid you might be right. I will try to sell it locally, but shipping the bike for $150 or more would really put a damper on my ability to sell it complete online.

I wonder what you all think would make the frameset more appealing: i.e. including the bottom bracket and headset? The headset and bottom bracket are loose ball Stronglight, messy to sell separately. Plus, I don't really have the tools to disassemble down to the bare frame and fork myself. I would have to take it to an LBS, meaning more money lost there.

What do you think it's worth on Ebay, frame, fork, headset and BB?
