I was wondering if anyone on here could help me put a value on a mountain bike I picked up from my next door neighbor. I have no clue about MTB, just BMX so any help would be appreciated. The bike is a 1997-98(i think) trek 930 single track. It looks to have a bunch of aftermarket stuff like the fork which is a shock is made by easton. Looks like the handlebars also have been modified. This bike is in amazing shape and has been sitting in a barn for the last 7-8 years. Does anyone know what these go for? From my research this seems to be a pretty desirable frame even as old as it is. If you any info please pm me. I would like to sell it or trade it for 80s race bmx stuff. I can post pics when I get home from work. Thanks for reading!

I checked the "blue book" but couldn't find Trek 930.

Thanks for info. It says "single track" on top tube of fram and 930 on downtube under seatmast. I am not positive on the year. I will post pics Sunday night or Monday morning depending how late I get in from chi. I appreciate the help.

I have a '98 Trek 6000 - which was an alloy framed equivelant. I bought it new. The 930s were steelframed and a step down from the alloy range. Somewhere here I have the original catalogue for the whole '98 Trek range. They originally had Rock Shox suspension probably just Indys - not sure what the parts would have been off the top of my head, but probably entry level type Shimano gearset etc - certainly below STX level.

It probably cost around the $400 to $500 mark when new. What's a 10 year old second hand steel MTB worth? Not much to be honest! Should be a good rider though - and the steel frames are much more comfortable to ride than the alloy frames - a bit of flex.

I know a good bit about 90's era Trek bikes. If you can tell me what color it is (or send/post a pic) I can tell you the year.

The bike should be dressed with STX components, and probably Gripshift SRT-400 shifters. If that exact same bike was still made by Trek today (tragically they stopped making it a decade ago). It would go for $1000, easily. Good quality steel-framed bikes are an extreme rarity these days. Few companies manufacture them any more, so they're almost always more expensive than their aluminum counterparts.

If the bike is a 97 in great working condition and good appearance; it's worth between $150 & $200.

Thanks, I will get you some pics. I did some research and believe it to be a 97. I know for a fact it has a chromoly frame. The fork is not not stock, it is made by Easton and has shock. The shifters are quick shifts I believe, they are little switches underneath each grip. The bars also do not appear to be stock. Thanks for info I will post pics soon.

You've got a 1993 model. Without seeing it in person, I couldn't give an accurate value, but from the picture, I'd say it's worth maybe $100 (if you get it "running"). It would be more valuable if you still had the stock rigid fork (although that Easton shock looks pretty nice).

It's a Manitou fork that has collapsed elastomer bumpers in it , broken and not worth fixing . Derby machine .

I should've seen that...

In that case, the bike isn't really worth anything without the original rigid fork...

got one that's similar w deore components, cromo frame, handmade for $32 at the thrift store

I'm still riding my 1996 Trek 930 SHX. I've always loved that bike. All chromoly, US built, STX components. That bike road smooth like butter after testing stiff aluminum frames that rattled my bones. I had to buy it.
I paid between $700-750 in early 96 after upgrading the shock elastomers. Still a nice bike but I doubt it's worth much now.

My buddy in college had a green 93 that looks like your frame... so I agree with what's already been said about it.
