Well used but in perfect working order.
Running as 1x9 but have all the s/s conversion stuff
Flat bar
Hope Mini with 160mm discs + Kinesis carbon fork upgrades, rest as per original spec.
Cy is asking £840 + £100 for a carbon-forked new one with cable discs so is £650-700 realistic?

No idea, but for a 4 year old bike I wouldn't expect to pay over half the price of a new one, regardless of upgrades. I'd say £400 - £450 would be more realistic, but then I'm a cheapskate!

Edit: Assuming all the upgrades are 4 years old too.

ok another way of putting it

How much would you pay for a 4 year old roadrat, Hope Minis are hardly the latest in brakes

In a word, No.

Possibly 450. But it being well used may reduce that to 350/400

You can get a new RR on c2w scheme for £600 ish, depending on your tax.

So no more than £400- 450 tops.

At about 2 years old
XT/105 gearing
Carbon bars, post, barends
SDG saddle
Spare set of forks
In good condition

For about £375 if I recall correctly
Yours is slightly better spec in forks and brakes but mine had better drivetrain and finishing kit
And yours is 2 years older. I'd say £350-£400 depending on condition. Maybe a bit more on a good day. 🙂
