Mint condition Hercules 1969?
Hi there:
I found this bike in my grandmother's garage. It is not clear when she got it, but probably the 60s. I suspect it is Super Deluxe AMF Hercules. What would be the right price to sell it, and should I try selling it on CL or Ebay? I am based in the Bay Area (Berkeley). Thank you so much for your help!
-Was in a garage for 45+ years
-Really beautiful, really clean, works, from the 60s
-Bike is made in England
-3 speed with sturmey archer internal shifting.
-Even the tires are original (Made in England).
-Original pedals white and seat white and hand grips white
-Dynamo Light for front and rear!!
-Medium frame

I would say $150-200 in the Bay Area if it were ready to ride...new cables, tires, bearings done etc. As is...you may be able to snag $100 or more if someone falls in love with it. Craigslist for sure.

Before you sell it, try to find someone in the family that wants to ride it. Grandkids, great-grandkids? Some needy college student in the family?
I dug out Mom's bike for my niece to ride this spring, and I'll probably blow up the tires for future visits too.
