Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

How Much Will I Get For This Bike?

I bought this Raleigh C30 Last November almost exactly one year ago. It has about 1200mi and is still working awsome. I want to sell it and i wanted to ask how much you guys think i'll get for it. I modified it from flat bar to road bar and i took out the seatpost suspension plus a road saddle, i made ita road bike. I like it because i can also do cyclocross with it and it handles very good. I'ts a 21 speed ''Shimano Mega Range'' and TEKTRO braking system. So how much do you think it's worth. I bought it for $340.

With the original equipment back on the bike I think that you might get around $100.00 for it. I suspect that in most markets the road bar will detract from the market value.

Please don't kill the messenger.

On ebay, I would think you could definitely get 175-225. I see pieces of junk go there for around a hundred. Could be wrong though, good luck.
