khs price

as much as i'm trying to adjust to it, i'm just not happy with the track geometry of my khs flite 100. so i'm thinking of selling and replacing with iro mark v. anyone know what my khs is worth and where a good place to post and ad for it would be?
thanks

the khs just has a 1 degree steeper seat tube than a road frame would have....you sure sure it's the geometry that you're not liking?
i know the fork is something like 28 rake, so if u swapped it with a 45, you should alleviate any toe overlap issues.

i would say 200-220ish tops for the frame.... complete depends on what parts are on it

I got my frame from Spicer for $180.00 because it was the wrong color and had a miniscule top-tube dent. Ka-ching.

what size are you guys on and how tall are you?
i do have a bit of toe overlap. i have noticed the top tube is shorter than most frames
52.5 or something for 50c-c but the 53 was too big for me, no clearance. I'm 5-6"
i'm going to try riser bars so the drop from saddle to bars is not so extreme.

for what it's worth, if you end up getting a road fork and want to sell your (1" threaded) khs track fork, PM me and we'll talk. i'm looking for one for a conversion i'm building.
