$100 max, put it on CL, and top post every 48 hours.....if multiple cities are nearby put it on those CL's and do the same.

It can take patience to sell bikes. I have had a couple nice bikes that were hard to sell, and I found it surprising.

I use to pass on these Treks when I saw them back in my regular bike score days, they always seemed kind of frumpy for lack of a better term. Of course I never saw any really good vintage mountain bikes, Hybrid Bikes compared to the really nice Roadies I could find with the exception of that 91' 750 I sold foolishly.

It took me four months of top posting on Balto, and DC CL to sell that 750 for $175 in 2010. So it can be a slog. (Duh, I should have kept it!)
