Can I get some ideas on how to improve my bike, I KNOW I need new forks, I might be getting Argyle 302's or 318's which is better? Also I'm soon to be buying an NS Metropolis 1, complete... so I need to get this stacked before I sell it,
Strip it down and advertise it as "ready for paint" or something along those lines.
As for parts, I wouldn't spend all that much money on it. Even if you dropped $1000 on that bike, you're still going to have a hard time selling it because that's not a frame that people want.
I would put up for a DJ series fork, that way you'd only be dropping $150-200 instead of $350-400 and it will still be better than what's on there now. Take the cranks and any other worn down items and hit them with a basic colour or a self etching primer and advertise the whole thing as ready to paint/all the hard work is already done. Use that as your selling point.
It seems trivial but a smaller seat and matching the tires would also raise the curb appeal without spending too much.
post it over in one of the photoshop and ask for it in a few different colours, which parts etc and you can see what suits it edit:oops you already have lol
