Im looking for a used hybrid for my wife and came upon this bike in our local craigslist. I can't seem to identify this bike..the single frame post is a clue, cables go through frame, 18 speed..shock seat and forks..he says he paid $400 about 4 or 5 years ago..he is asking $200..in excellant shape but want to find out what it is to see what exactly Im buying..any help appreciated

there are flowers around the frame stem if that helps identify it?

Maybe an 07 7200 WSD? https://www.bikepedia.com/QuickBike/B...model=7200+WSD

Now is it worth $200? Maybe, but I would offer a little less. Maybe $125 or $150. Plan on at least getting a servicing from a LBS (or DIY if that is your thing).

I bought my wife one similar to that one, but in green without the suspension fork. It has been a solid bike, but really nothing special, either. I thought about selling ours as my wife now has a new road bike, but she said no, as her sister likes to ride it when she comes to visit.

well the bike is a bit large for my wife..I went to local dealer and checked out the 13" and 16" frames..so..bought her a Trek Verve 3..she loves it and the fit is perfect with the 13". The upgrades from the Verve 1 and 2 to 3 for me were worth the extra $$$. upgraded gearing, wheels, shifters, ergo grips, front suspension, plus she loves the pearl white color~ now she can roll much easier than previous on her Schwinn Tornado 7 speed cruiser..I have a Trek hybrid as well, the 7.5..imho Trek makes an awesome bike..
