http://www.ebay.com/itm/131200009999?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT

For sale vintage 1993 (I think) barracuda A2X. In great shape. A few nicks here an there but all tuned and ready to go. Hand made steel frame made in Durango I think. Has a vintage rock shox mag fork that sti works great. Has a vintage xtr kit that works perfectly and is in very good shape. Ritchey z max tires in great shape and period correct.
As far as the xtr there is:
Front and rear hub
Headset (1 inch threaded I believe
Rapid fire pods (7 speed)
Cantilever brakes with looks like new breakpads
Front and rear derailleurs,
Crankset.
Not sure about the cassette or bb

Bike is tuned and really to go.. I bought it for a townie and I just use my single speed all the time.

Please contact me with questions. The bike has been professionally tuned and works great.

No international bidders please cup holder not included unless you really want it.

Buy it now recently lowered to $500. Thoughts on a fair market value? Condition seems so so...I would be interested in the $300 range all in with shipping.

Ron,

Market value is out the window on a high end 'Cuda like an A2X, there are so few that a base line can't be established. The A2X was only made in '93 & '94, that 1993 A2X was most certainly made by Yeti. That said, we can establish a (slightly inflated) baseline for a similar era Yeti, like an A.R.C., I sold my complete 1993 A.R.C. with all Ti bits and XTR for $1,100.00 (plus $400.00 s/h) five years ago to a collector in Europe. That was a $0.99 openig bid auction on Ebay, so it's safe to assume the in 2009 the fair market price for an A.R.C. was $1,100.00... now, take away the inflated pricing based on cult collectibility and you have a Yeti made 'Cuda that is a steal at $300.00 and probably fairly priced at $500.00 for that frame with 2nd year XTR group. The early "silver" XTR group can fetch those prices in a highly contested auction. Obviously, there are deals and steals out there... but luck and patience seem to be key.

I think I was using my A2V as a price-point which is probably unfair. Paying top dollar ($400 aw/ shipping) for that one I thought this would be in the similar range since the condition was not as good. Although I did not realize this was a $3k bike new.

That being said, I will probably drop a bid and see what happens...I don't think I will BIN at $550 all (incl shipping).

Thanks for the posting Mark!

The seller might just get that price... we'll have to see.

-D-

p.s. I haven't seen a Sram derailleur "Worm" in forever! Just the other day I came across a new one in my part bins, a weird little part from the 1990's era mountain biking (my favorite era)... all the innovation, CNC, and anodizing your wallet could handle!
