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

Venge pro value

I'm trying to see how much i could get out of this bike. It's a 2012 venge pro. I need the mo ney and I'll probably put it up on craigslist. If anyone can help me get an idea of how much i could get out of it, that would be helpful. It's got less than 100 miles on it. Thanks. 2012 specialized venge pro frameset

I'll give you fifty bucks for the saddle. Send a PM if interested.

Seeing it's a Venge, make sure you ask for 20% more than you think it's worth.

A 2012 bike with 100 miles and 2015 bars and saddle! Something isn't right. If it's stolen why the new pieces?

Maybe it's like the used car driven only by a little old lady on Sunday's.

100 miles on a 2012? sounds legit.

The Bicycle Blue Book is a good place to start.
2012 Specialized Venge Pro SRAM Red Mid-Compact - New and Used Bike Value

It puts the bike at around $2000 to $3000 (less than half the $6400 new price).

Looking at completed auctions on E-Bay, that may even be a bit high. Perhaps $1500 to $2500.

Are the replaced bits and pieces due to a bad crash? Informed buyers would want to know.

Bikes: '97 Klein Quantum '16 Gravity Knockout

Well, I got $2300 for my '13 Venge Expert on Ebay a few months ago. It had about 1300 mile on it, and Aerofly bars, but the drivetrain was all stock (10-speed Ultegra/SL-K Light crank)

But a 4 year-old bike with only "100 miles" on it and mish-mash of different parts? A cruddy low-end Gossamer on a high-end bike? Sounds like something someone just threw together from the junk pile. i.e. I think that that greatly reduces it's value- plus no one in their right mind is going to believe the "100 miles", just as they don't believe that every 50 year-old classic car with a 5 digit odometer only has 30K miles on it......

Probably have to sell it at a bargain price to get someone to overlook all of that.
