What would you pay for this frame

[Keagan Lessing]

it’s a 2023 carbon fiber Pyga slakline and I’ve been wanting an upgrade but don’t know how much this frame is worth and maybe the entire bike. So can you just tell me what you would pay for the frame and the whole bike please and thank you?

I would clean the bike and take better pics.

…and then i would take a photo showing the DRIVE-SIDE!
Really!

C’mon, get busy…

C'mon guys, no need to be so nasty to a Newby. If you can't afford him a decent response or help with his question, just move on.

ZERO nastiness here; just a bit of fun, and some honest advice; wash the bike, and display the drive side!

Point taken.

But please, we need specs, clean images of bike and maybe what you think is an upgrade.? Bike looks cool man

Would have to look at the spec etc, but I see a medium frame one in the classifieds at the moment for R25k and its been up for 3 weeks already. Fairly decent spec too

A few years back a guy posted a photo here on Bikehub  (when we could still comment on the classifieds) of a VERY dirty / muddy mtb for sale. 

Everyone commented on the dirty bike and laziness of the seller to not just wash it and take better photos. 

I saw some potential and send n direct message to the seller.  Ask him to wash the bike and send se better pictures. 

Turn out to be a huge bargain and very good connection.

I bought the bike and still have it today. 

He even shipped the bike covered in a nice blanket... which my dogs inherited. 😆

Moral of the story: sometimes huge bargains can be bought from lazy sellers...😂

Give a bit of history on the frame, afaik the Slakline is alloy. So is this a proto or limited model? That kind of background goes a long way. 

Give the bike a good clean and polish, as in properly. Photograph it drivetrain side against a clear background like the garden/building wall. 
Take close up shots of key specs/parts and any obvious damage/marks. It doesn’t need to be an editorial shoot. Clear shots from a smartphone is fine, 10 max.

Be honest about the condition and state of the bike!

Check similar spec and year bike models for pricing bud, it’s very subjective. Given that this is a trail/enduro build and relatively niche. I’d suggest you consider selling the frame and parting the rest out in line with what you want to upgrade.

One hit wonder, doubt he'll be back

Beneath the mud was a almost brand new Giant XTC (SL carbon lay up). Fitted with a Lefty front and full Sram XO groupset. Stans Crest wheels. 

He built the bike up (all new parts frame Lefty etc.) did one race and then realized he need money for his wedding.

5 Rand. Keep the change.

Just kidding bro. Maybe just take some clean drive side pics.
