Try the guys at Enduro Sport. Last summer, they had some NOS Softride frames hanging around. I bought one from them and have been very happy.

Clydesdales are basically dead- almost whey race has eliminated them as a category while you were away

I've got a black TT in XL in the basement. Good to hear there is still some value there. My experience has been good - used it regularly for about 2 years with no reliability issues. It might be time to clear out the stable this spring.

I broke down my wife's old PowerWing 700 and put it, in all it's yellow glory, up on ebay 4 days ago. It's a t $150. I have given this a lot of thought - you should bid it up to ~$450 and then turn around and sell it for closer to a grand! Have at it:)

If you were god, you would know that I posted this back in September of 2009.

But I still stand by what I said, (look at my original post) Softride frames (particularly the TT7s, and those tt7 with the classic beam) in size LARGE, still fetch a good price on Ebay, there have not been very many of them the last few months. I did not mean to WARRANT that if you put up any softride frame, you'll hit the bank.

Put one of those silver TT7 fast frames up there or a black tt7 rocket, and they do pretty well.

And right now, that's at $150, I think you might get right at $300 or more, and if it gets 300 plus, that would be good for that frame in my opinion.

I said "might get" but if you are God, you know already know what the final auction brought.

I picked up this roadwing for $450 on CL a few years back. and it came with an extra set of STI's that I sold for $100----so it cost me $350

I sold it for about $450 a few months later.

Do you want to sell the xl black softride rocket?

In case anyone cares the op makes the comment about why nobody buys the softride brand and starts it up again. I actually tried to do this. Softride is owned by the alsoft brothers and despite my efforts they would not return my phone calls or e-mails. I was trying to put together a business plan to restart the brand and asked them to name their price for manufacturing equipment and old stock. But like I said they were not interested.

keep asking, someday they may say yes

you know I have thought about that and then I have thought about just looking up he patent which i am sure has expired by now and just copying the beam and re-working everything else. But in the end it all comes down to capital which in the current economy is in short supply.

I've ordered pivot bolts, clamps, etc for my Powerwing direct through Softride. Looks like they have some items for the Rockets too.
