Don't feel bad, I meet lots of people who think they're sitting on a gold mine. "I'll sell if the price is right" usually means "I think this thing is worth a fortune." I tell 'em to put it on eBay and see for themselves!
Pauly

mnewxcv

well For your information i dont think im sitting on a gold mine but if you read the origional message it clearly states that im not sure about selling it. i realized that if it would go for $100 i mite as well get it powdered and build it up. thats all,it had nothin to do with me expectin more i just decided to keep it.

thanks
tony,
Pauly
In that case I'll offer $50.

thats a performer, no a pro performer

I sold my white 87 performer complete for $275 a few months ago. There's no way to predict the BMX market at any given time.

considering it doesnt have all the original paint and decals, I dont think you could really make too much off the pro performer frame.

Performer, Pro, same frame.
mnewxcv
no, they arent.

performer has 1 bend in downtube for 1987.

for pro performer and pro freestyle tour, they use the new frame for 87, with 2 bends in the downtube.
Blue_Max
mnew is right about the 87's, from then on the s bend was used until the early 90s. what im wondering is though, when did the single bend performers stop being made?

the 89' performers had the 1 bend, and the 94's had the one bend at the bottom rather than the top. so somewhere between there, the performers had a S type without the 990s. ill look into it.
agentheinz
Whoops, I was thinking about the earlier ones, '85 and '86. THOSE are the same---single bend on both, the difference being the parts. Didn't realize the S bend started in '87, thought it was '88. That style frame can be built into a Performer, PP, or World Tour for the earlier years.
