Another question re: Voodoo

[devo kenivel]

Besides the fact that this is a kick ass bike and has a sweet name, I cannot remember what year it is. It's an orange Voodoo Bizango. Anyone out there know what year it is?? I've been at diligently looking online but to no avail.

THanks

[danger!]

Is it a Tange tubeset? Light Superlight or something?

I think it's a '97.

Let me know if you'd like to save yourself all of this trouble, and just sell me the frame. :D

dan, what would you want to buy the frame for? i also have a sid from i believe last year that's on it.

[TML]

Stop it you guys. All this talk of high end Steel frames is making me salivate.

devo - Nice bike ya got there. I drooled over them for a few years when I had no money to buy one.

[devo kenivel]

well, it's for sale now :) throw a price out there.

I'm afraid all I could offer would be in the neighborhood of $175 or so for just the frame. I could maybe go higher if I sell one of the other frames I have right now.

Not really in the market now. Just admiring the bike. Don't tell my Blizzard that though.;)

I know you've mentioned it before somewhere on these boards, but what year is your Blizzard? Beautiful bike, isn't it? When I can't ride mine anymore, I'm putting the frame over the living room fireplace. :)

Definitely worthy.

Yes, beautiful bike. Mine is an '02. Your's is late nineties right?

1996. 15th Anniversary Edition. My first "Grown Up" bike, with suspension and clipless pedals.

Can't understand why Dan wants a quality steel frame. Can you? At the swap meet there was a beautiful Breezer frame, with the old "Pool Cue" paint job for $125. THAT was sharp. Always wanted a Breezer, too. Right Dan?

Yeah, wish my Breezer wasn't a bit big for me, otherwise I'd still be rocking it! I would have snapped that one up for $125 ifI had gone to the swap! :cryin:

Could you make it more of a cruiser? Big wide bars, sissy bar, fatty slicks.

P.S. I apologize to Devo for hijacking his thread. Anyone ever see a thread here not veer off course? Now all we need is someone to mention beer and we have a typical MORC forum.:beer_yum:

I probably could have, but I sold it to a guy in Japan last year. :cryin:

Aw crap. I didn't know that. I'm sorry for your loss :cryin: .

Yeah, I didn't mean to lowball you, but my funds are pretty low right now. Hope you didn't take offense, just where I'm at. :D

Seriously, if that frame is a mid-late 90's and is a normal "used frame", $175-$225 isn't really that far off. I know they're around $650 new, so if you take into account depreciation for at least a 6 year old frame, that's not too out of line. If that's the age of the frame. My $.00002.

It's not nice to challenge a bald man to a mullet fight. :crazy2:

I pretty much based my offer from what I sold my '95 Breezer frame for $125. Considering the Voodoo is a couple years newer, I tacked on $50.

i know, but for whatever reason (probably cuz you can't get them anymore - at least made the way the were) some people will pay an arm and a leg for them. i just really want to get the most for it. although i know i'll be kicking myself a few years down the road for selling it.

Speaking from experience, you will kick yourself. The problem with selling a bike like this is most people will only want the frame, so that limits the amount you'll get for the whole enchilada. I was holding out for a bunch of money for my Breezer, and in the end I parted it out and made about the same amount. It's a bit more work, but worth it in my opinion.

[devo kenivel]

but it looks so pretty with a black sid shock and orange frame and xtr stuff. kinda the halloween look going on.

I hear ya. I like orange.

Sounds to me like you shouldn't be selling this ride. :D

Edit: I just sold one of my frames, so I have a bit more leeway. If you would sell the frame alone, shoot me a price. :D

[devo kenivel]

man i wouldn't even know where to begin. i really want to put it on ebay (as a whole bike) and see if anyone wants to snatch it up. what would you think for the frame??

How much are you hoping to get for the complete bike? That might help me formulate a decent offer for the frame alone.
