Afternoon

I know it's not the done thing to join a forum with the express intention of selling something so apologies in advance for how this appears.

I've been reading these pages for many years now and would appreciate advice from those who know.

Just about a year ago I returned to the UK after working away for a couple of years, I rewarded myself with a Whyte E120 Trail, a beautiful full carbon bike. Almost immediately I got a new job, again working away and over the last year I have ridden the bike 3 times, not at all in the last 6 months!

I have procrastinated enough and it's time to realise that I'm just not going to use it and should let someone else have a go. So, what's an immaculate E120 Trail worth? It's done less than 30 miles of gentle cross country and road work, the pads are still as new, the molding bobbles still on the tyres. I fitted Burgtec pedals, the titanium axle type, they are still perfect.

I have the receipts, handbook, carbon shock pump and tyre pump, all in A1 condition and would really appreciate some advice on what to ask for it, I have over £3.5k in it, would it make £2K?

I'll be popping it into the for sale section once I have a good idea on value from those kind enough to offer advice.

Thanks in advance

Mat

The usual advice is to split to make the money, but tbh you'll lose a packet either way - so why not just keep it, or take it with you?

Hi Mat,

Have you a conclusion on how much you would like to sell your Whyte for? As i could be very interested, as im lookin for a new 24hr riding machine 😉

Cheers,
Rich
