I'm wanting a full sus bike and hoping to spend around £1500- £2000. Hopefully grabbing a nice bike in a sale.

Is it worth me selling my custom build and entry level road Bianchi Via Nirone to fund? What do people get for these bikes?.

My custom build is a kinesis Maxlight hardtail. 6 years old roughly, great condition with Deore XT kits on it, DT Swiss wheels. Hayes Stroker breaks. Some ok components, but I want better with the new bike.

Due to space it makes sense for me to sell the bikes which would be unused (the roadie is unused most of the year)

eBay for prices of sh road bikes?

"Custom" build MTB - best strip to sell.

26" and 1 1/8 don't sell so well.

That's what I thought. Maybe I'll keep the hard tail and ged rid of the road.

The bianchi is a 54 I think I can double check in the morning.

bianchi - advanced search on ebay for completed listings, road bikes do tend to hold their value but not the best time of year to sell when it's winter and there's still 2016 bargains around).

6 yr old 26" hardtail? 20% of f-- all.

Trade-in, even less.
