50-60% of it's RRP at one year old then take 5-10% off the value for every year after that

Example - £1k bike at 4 years old = £400-ish

I'd say £1500-£1700.

Of course you'll always get more if you split it. And this is the WRONG time of year to sell a bike. Wait until feb/march 🙂

I'd say 1500 would be reasonable. Try pinkbike...they are less tight than here!

Wowzer , thats a lot to drop but hey ho
Reckon I will stick it on at 1800 and see if I get any sniffs
My thought are buy an El Guapo frame as I have most parts to build a fairly decent spec eg flows/36s/saint drivetrain and reverb etc and i should be able to put a grand back in the kitty
