    How much is my Kona worth?

    What she worth? Has been a great hard tail for me but time to break the bank on something new.

    2008 Kona Blast 20 inch frame

    Upgrades in past year.

    Rock Shox Recon Gold RL fork (80-120 mm travel) with trigger lockout
    Shimano Deore Shifters
    Avid BB5 brakes
    SRAM cranks
    Rhino Lite rear rim
    Specialized carbon seat post
    Wide handle bars
    Specialized grips
    Specialized ground control 2.3 front and 2.1 rear tire (new this season)
    New bottom bracket

    Sounds like it has been a fun ride for you, but it's not worth a lot used.

    You guys have any experience w getting close to bbb suggested prices? I was actually expecting a bit less than their proposed values.

    Im shortly unloading 2 scotts road bikes (an addict r3 and a foil di2) plus a scott spark 10 mtb (26in) and thought they would go lower quite a bit lower.

    BC, have you thought about just commuterizing it? I know it's hard to hear because she's your special lady, but you're just not talking about much money.
    No longer stuck.

    Ya that was the original thought, and then I thought maybe see what its worth, I kinda already knew what to expect but wanted to hear it from others, so I appreciate it.

    Will most likely convert into a commuter at this point, which is good cause my current commuter lacks sufficient braking power for the ride down from the U.

    If anyone is dying for a hard tail make me an offer, if not she will be getting some slimmer tires
