Old mountain bike

[Mickey Bitsko]

I have a mid 90s Giant iguana model mountain bike in real good condition.
Around 2005 I upgraded all the shifting and braking components.
Probably haven't riden it at least 10yrs.
So, it's still very usable.
I don't want to give it away but, does it have any value?
Thanks

Sure does. Clean it and replace/repair worn items and start riding again. If you are looking to sell it for the “value” look at local bicycles in the classifieds where you are and you will get an idea.

I still have my Ibis Mojo from the early 90’s… all top line components too (Paul’s, Cook Brothers, XT/XTR, ti Ibis handlebar…

They are worth what you get paid for it. Unfortunately, not a lot.

Post up a pic - vintage bikes command a premium depending on model.....

Saddles a little rough.
What do you think it's worth?
Haven't posted on Craigslist.... yet.

Bike like this are probably worth more to the current owner than for sale. You might get a taker on CL but I wouldn't expect much. I have sold pretty decent mtn bikes (for their time) for very little because the components and standards changed so much, they got outdated pretty quickly. Perfectly rideable in the right conditions, just not valuable on the used market. $150-$250 would be my guess.
