Needs must , i have been hit with a big bill for the roof this month i had to cover and i have decided to sell one of the fleet
I have narrowed it down to a possible 3
1. carrera vanquish disc , this is my main commuter and it had a new rear wheel last month
2, giant tcr retro mod 10 speed 105
3, boardman build tiagra 4700
Obviously in an ideal world i wouldnt sell any but as i currently have 5 bikes i will not miss one

They looks like overlapping bikes so either sell the one you'll get the most for or the one you prefer the least. Or let the universe decide - put them all up for sale and see which goes first, then pull the others.

I wouldn't have thought any of them liukely to sell for enough to make much of a dent in a big bill like that :sad:

But the Giant I would guess is likely to make the most, while the Carrera is the one that in your position I would most want to keep.

I'd imagine the Giant is the only one that might solicit interest beyond a utility / beater role, so might have the most value. That said of course prices are on the floor so perhaps a lesser absolute loss would be had from flogging on of the cheaper ones..

Any guesses at value ?
If we're talking £100 it's not worth it, just put my name down for Sunday work double bubble

We too have a massive roof bill this month. I am hiding this post from my husband in case he gets ideas! I'm so sorry about your culling.
