Swing Bike value ?

[Scribble]

Guy on craigslist wants $300 for it.

It's got a lot incorrect with it, however, those are really hard to find. If you want it, and you want to put the effort into the parts and restoration, they could be worth upwards of $1,000 because of the novelty and rareness of them. But that's just a guess.

I'll message 'SwingBike1976' (Robb) and see if he can chime in. He's the Swing Bike guru.

worth 300 all day long - the tough pieces are there ( frameset,,the springs and hardware,rear triangle ), incorrect seat,sissy, etc are easily upgraded bolt-ons.
Grab it !

It's got a Bendix 2 speed blue band hub. They bring 100 to 200 dollars alone. Go get it!!

I have several in similar overall condition, with correct parts, that I paid more than that.

Thanks guys, just offered $250 and got it, so excited.

Sweet!

$250 is a good price, actually the hard to get piece is missing, the oddball seat post. Easy to fab or make due without though. If it was me i would go with a single speed, that kickback will switch gears pretty often if your trying to do tricks much. Those blue bands are harder to find, definitely a good thing to find on a bike regardless!

Here is a seat post for it.

Oh I sold it ya I realized that I bought it on a knee-jerk reaction, when I got it home I just was not feeling it no inspiration to fix it up. So I sold it to some one on the forum that wanted to fix it.
