So you'll take 18000 won then ? That's ten times what you're asking in another currency?
Post back please.

$1,800 U.S or the money market equivalent in Korean Won. As of right now, that equivalent equals 2666520 Won.

Try posting it on some Korean sites....lot of top end bikes out my way but mostly Korean owned. Don't think you'll entice too many English teachers w/ this. I already have one.

Honestly man, I don't plan on spending that much on a car. What makes you think I'll spend that much on a bike ? 18000 won offer still stands.
I'll even make it 180 000 won, just for your time.

I think using the market equivalent in Korean Won is unnecessary for ESL teachers. A fair price would be what you paid for at the time of purchase(back then exchange rate) + lugging it here extra fee - depreciation cost no matter how many times you rode it. The only people you should use the market equivalent are Koreans.

I have a bike and don't need this one, but I have to ask-

Where is the rear cassette on this?
Does it have a different system or did you remove it?

Sorry if it's a dumb question but I'm a little curious.

Nice bike though.

it's a single speed... it doesn't need a cassette.

as far as the p3 goes, you'll need to post it on a bike only forum for anyone with interest to find it. koreans don't seem to use craigslist much.

i'm currently selling a transition trail-or-park of a similar build on a couple websites like corearoadbikes.com and bikesell.co.kr but there's not much of a market for dj/urbans in this country. i've seen a few at the skate park in boramae but none out at the dh courses.

it should also be noted that koreans, rightly or otherwise, really will not pay any significant money for any kind of dh or dj/urban bike as they feel that they will be more heavily (ab)used regardless of the actual condition of the bicycle. remember, they don't even let you test ride bikes in this country because that would effectively make a bike 'used'.

all that said, specialized is a big deal in this country (in the cycling market) so you may still come out on top and if all else fails, part that sucker out. good luck.

kiknkorea, my bike is completely stock with nothing having been removed. Like nosmallplans said there is no cassette. There is a single sprocket that is hardly visible because of the spacers on either side of it; the teeth of the sprocket are the only thing really visible.
I will check out those sites and maybe put my bike up there, thanks nosmallplans.
