Is This Frame Still Relavent?
I've got a S&M Stricker frame with a Euro BB and pressed/external headset cups (FSA), it's got some kinda special chromoly tubing or something I can't remember exactly what it was, but I think it's around 6 1/4 lbs.
I can't ride anymore and I'm wondering if I should bother trying to sell it online or just find some local kid and give it to him for $50. Would anyone still ride this frame these days?
If not what about the parts on it? It's got...
Fit Blade forks
Fit Flow cranks
Fit wheelset
Original (And I mean the original original... 10 years old...HUGE) Slam Bars.
SNAFU pedals, yup SNAFU..they still around?
Shadow Conspiracy Seat and 36t sprocket.
So is any of this stuff still good or is it all outdated? I know it's all quality stuff but does anyone still want it?
P.S.
I've also got a set of Primo HulaHoop wheels, Powerbite Cranks and Volume Forks...any retro love for these?

get 30 posts and then post in classifieds. And someone will most likely want some of that stuff.
I just use a hack saw and leave about 3 inches.

the only thing wrong with that frame is the Euro bb. those sucked a lot and manufacturers abandoned them. it's also pretty heavy. you might find someone who is nostalgic for older s&m stuff. also try bmxmuseum.com

BMX is not a lifestyle choice, but rather a hobby.

I don't see that being too hard to sell..... for the right price.
But you need to be in the forum more, build a reputation, and get at least 30 posts before you can even sell it in the "Classifieds" section.

Ya the Euro BB did kinda suck, but they aren't that bad as long as you're smooth and don't do 20 sets all day long.
I'm going to take a look at bmxmuseum, but I may just throw it all up on ebay or maybe I'll stick around here and get a few more posts.
@Johndeere - Me too, the frame was the best one I'd ever owned. From what I understand frames are way under 5 lbs now, but 6 1/4 isn't exactly a tank, it was one of the lightest on the market when I bought it and compared to the frames being ridden at the time it was like a feather.
I see you're in Sweden? I haven't decided if I'll ship Int. but I'll let you know if I'm put it up anywhere off this site.
