Default custom built GT Aggressor 1 mountain bike

You are looking at a custom built GT Aggressor 1. Since this bike has been built it has hardly been ridden, hence me selling it! The frame, chainset, cranks, saddle and forks have only been ridden a maximum of 5 times!! This would make an excellent christmas present for someone looking to get into mountain biking, keeping fit or commuting.


Bike spec:

GT Aggressor 1 aluminium frame 17.5 inch
Rockshocks Judy forks
hope bigun' on mavic 321D rear wheel
hope sport on mavic 321D front wheel
hope sport/4pot hydraulic disc brakes
Panaracer Fire DH Pro tyres (2.3")
FSA cranks
Welgo v12 pedals (same as old school dmr v12)
f.u.n.n henchman stem
Xlite G-Force bars
Intense grips and bar plugs
Shimano Deore 9 speed front and rear mechs
Shimano Deore 9 speed shifters
Topeak Defender quich release mud guards
front and rear lights


Visit GT Aggressor Custom Build to see more pics of the bike.



Collection is preferred but postage can be arranged im located in swindon wiltshire,

ideally im looking for around the £450 ono as im unsure to what the bike is worth and all offers will be considerd or advice on what to price the bike up at thanks .lee.

Hi mate, I think your price may be a bit high. I'm into mountain biking myself and have a custom build Specialized Bighit downhill bike I was considering selling. I was having a look on ebay the other day to get a price I may get for it and was shocked to see what they were going for. I know its a completely different bike, but mine to build would cost you nearly £3000 and they were going for £6-700.

Here's mine, I'd be wanting about a grand at least for it. (just for your information, not trying to hijack your thread )

I'm no expert but maybe around the 300 mark? Have a wee look elsewhere and you might get a rough idea.

Unfortunately a brand new Aggressor in halfords is around the £300- £400 ish mark. I got my GT aggressor 1 of fleabay for £50 (albeit in standard form) Try a completed listings search on fleabay to give you an idea on price.

i honestly dont know!! ive had a quick scan on ebay to see what private sellers are quoting on delivery and it seems to be from £25+

depending on your location i might be able to deliver this myself or if the buyer decides to collect ive also got a halfords bike rack! i could add to the deal!

I'd say you're about right with your postage costs. My mate recently posted a bike similar to mine and I think it was about £30. Parcel force don't seem to like them cos they're too big, if you can believe that! Any excuse.

You sold it for 550, jeezz! I think I would have kept it for the hell of it. Can't decide if I'm gonna sell mine or not, probably regret it if I do. You wouldn't want to go down the Fort William DH track on anything less.

Free bttt for you Lee.

No point keeping it they lose huge value as the years roll by !

I still have my titanium framed xtr mech'd beastie in the shed, cost me quite a bit over time guess it's probably worth 100ish quid now (it got thumb shifters ffs ...!!! they were lighter at the time!)
