Help with bike pricing

[djb1971]

I'm thinking of selling this bike but can't think of a reasonable cost, what does everyone think?
It's currently in road bike mode but can accept cross tyres. I just need a decent price all around before I stick it in the classifieds.

2007 Specialized S-works Tricross

Size M - 54

e5 columbus aluminium tubing
Aksium wheelset
Ultegra cassette
Vittoria rubino pro folding tyres
Ultegra sti
Ultegra front/rear mechs
Ultegra sl chainset and BB
Brooks swift ti saddle
Ritchey carbon matrix stem
Ritchey wcs seatpost
FSA omega compact bars
Tektro cr520 cantilever brakes with Koolstop tectonic cartridge pads

Excellent condition

That is A.Smart.Bike! Too small for me otherwise I would tell you 14/- oh alright -£5 then, no quibbling.

Thanks for the offer. I suppose you want postage included

a normal rule of thumb is half the purchase price with an additional tenner off for each year of age…

Still trying to avoid divorce? Shame to see your second bike on here - hope this bike selling is not the end. There are other options

Thanks for the advice. It cost around £2000+ to build because these were a frame only option so that works out at approx. £950 using alecs equation. I don't think I'm going to ask that much for it.

Gavin,
I currently have 6 bikes hanging from the wall and 2 in the shed. I have just been to look at another so I need a gap for it to fit
That sale may have gone pear shaped though

I have thought about the other option but a hitman is more expensive than divorce

It looks a nice bike. Hope you work out a decent bike / life balance.

I've worked out that if I get rid of the wife and have a single bed I can get another 5 bikes along that side of the room

She has also worked out if she does the same to me she can fit another 40 pairs of shoes and at least 2 dozen handbags in a lovely rotating rack system that she's seen on a cribs type programme
