It's a Raleigh Burner Team Aero Pro replica. Raleigh did a limited edition of 500 replicas about 10 years ago, this is chassis number 003. Bought new and unused since then. Not quite perfect but certainly not far off.

Any idea what price I should put it up at?

Cheers.

Have you checked 'sold' listings on eBay?

Prices are all over the place - anything between not sold and 400 quid!

There isn't much around to compare it with, perhaps people don't really but bikes in the middle of winter.

Try in on the sales & trades forums on facebook, i'd say a Burner fan would have it for cheap at £250 to £400 max.

I'd say the £500 Max is about right, but depends - is this a steel framed or full chromo?
Some on here have the ET Kuwa reps and they fetch circa £800+ when they come up.
It's a weird thing, stick it on eBay, take the abuse from those that think it's a £99 bike 😂 and wait till the one guy that's been looking for it finds the ad.

There are a couple of dedicated FB pages that are to do with race BMXs - and many of the older riders like a retro bike.

Nice one, how would I know if it's steel or chromo? From the weight of it I'd say it's steel.

I take that back, deffo full chromo, there's a sticker on the seat post and it isn't as
heavy as I remember it being.

I used to dabble in OS BMX's. The money is in the originals, not the repo ones unfortunatelyfrown

If you go to radbmx, they will give you a true figure.

That's fair enough. Only cost me £240 so it may back in the shed for a while.
