Default Spring Cleaning - Wheelset, Seatpost, Saddle & Light System

I don't post on here much but thought I'd let all of you take a look at this stuff before I threw it up on eBay just in case some/one of you might be interested in it. I don't really have any set prices in mind for any of this and am open to a trade for any of the items if you have a good, hydraulic disc brake set, a lightweight SS 29er wheelset or a good set of low-rise, carbon bars that you'd be interested in parting with.

Shoot me an email at: cranxoc@gmail.com if you're interested in any of these items.

1. Custom-built (by Bike Co) tubeless, disc wheelset: This set was built and purchased in March of 2006 and ridden until June of 2007. I bought a set of race wheels and kept these as a spare set but have no further use for them. Here are the spec:

-Mavic 819 UST Rims
-Hope Pro II disc hubs (front hub is convertible to through axle)
-DT Swiss alloy spokes and nipples
-Mavic quick release skewers
-SRAM PG-990 cassette (it only has about 3 months of use on it so still tons of life left in it)

Default 2. Thompson Masterpiece Seatpost (30.9x350)

This was used on my Racer X for about 4 months before I switched to a setback seatpost. This is the lightest model Thompson makes and the thing is pretty much bulletproof!

Default 3. Light & Motion Arc LiOn, HID Lighting System

Super lightweight, and super bright this is a really solid lighting system. It has a smart charger to prevent overcharging, lithium-ion battery for lightweight and long life and two different settings for the light output. You can mount it on your helmet or handlebars (I don't have the handlebar mount anymore but you can get it for a couple of dollars from L&M).

I bought this light in April of 2006 and have used it less than a dozen times so it's in great shape. It retails for approximately $499 to give you some idea of the quality. Also, here are the reviews from everyone's favorite site http://www.mtbr.com/cat/accessories/...62_130crx.aspx

Default 4. Fi'Zi:K Gobi XM Saddle

This is Fiz's top of the line mountain saddle and is awesome! I rode it for about 2 months before replacing it with the Specialized saddle I have on all of my other bikes (it's just easier for my butt to get used to one design across all bikes )

Damn! You guys are fast. As for pricing, the saddle and the seatpost retail for over $100 (around $120 I believe) each so I'm thinking around $40 would be fair since they're pretty lightly used.

Sorry, I've been filtering through lots of PM's. OK, first, the seatpost has been sold so that's gone .

Prices for the other parts are in these neighborhoods:

1. Wheels: $200 is probably fair given the shape they're in. Very true and roll well. Retail cost on these is north of $600.

2. The light system retails for just under $500 so and, as I said previously, has been used less than a dozen times so probably $225 on that one.

3. The saddle is $40

Hope that helps everyone.
