2009 Trek 7.3 WSD

[vickster]

I've got one of these which, since buying an XL Crosstrail Sport, I am finding a little small (I am ~5'10, inside leg 32", long arms for a woman). I love the light weight and the speed on the 32mm smooth tyres, just find the geometry a little off now.

What might it be worth second hand if I were to sell and buy a men's bike (maybe just another 7.3 or a 7.5, maybe a Sirrus, maybe a Marin)? Not sure how far I have ridden it (less than 1000 miles I guess), not ridden in rain intentionally (we all get caught from time to time ), few marks on the frame due to the goldy matt finish. Cost me £450 last summer. 2010 model same price

TIA

Any chance you can take it back to the shop where you bought it and try and get a deal?

Otherwise, selling it on here would be an option - got to be worth £360-400 IMHO.

Cheers!

I would be better off with cash - they also only have Spesh and Trek, could get a lower priced 2009 model or similar

Do you really think it could be worth that much...cool

Question - is this a men's bike, as there seem to be two 2010 models?

The first one is the same sort of colour as my current one

The black, second one is, (nice bike) but the goldy one is WSD doesn't make it clear though.

The 2nd one is the mens one,prob a mistake on the site as the 1st one is a girls bike.
Think you'd be lucky to get the amount suggested tbh,maybe closer to £250-275.

Cheers Potsy, I was hoping £300? Hard to gauge from Fleabay

I think the 7.3 WSD women's is white this year...also 19" is the biggest (like mine), that site says it is a 20"

What men's hybrids are there out there with thinnish tyres and lovely and light for around £400? Other than the Trek 7.3?
