I have just had a set of forks warrantied, and I have also ordered new ones, different brand. The new ones arrive in about 10 days time. The LBS has now received the warrantied set back, with brand new steerer, crown and stanchions, so effectively a new fork (it was only max 15 rides old when it started creaking). My plan is to sell these warranty ones, and if I don’t fit them to the bike I guess I’ll get a bit more for them, in an unridden, uncut state ?
But, if I do that I can’t ride my MTB for another 10 days, so probably 2 or 3 rides. I do have other bikes though, road and cx.
Not sure what likely resale difference is likley to be ? Am guessing about £60 perhaps ? opinions ? (XFusions velvets). Am thinking that I ought to sacrafice those 2 or 3 rides if I’ll get a significantly better price by selling them unused ?
