Is it worth trying for a carbon frame??

Is it worth trying for a carbon frame??

I would say nice to have but not essential. Easier to stick it on the roof of the car with a carbon frame 😂

I have been offered a 2013 cube reaction 26” for 500.

We need to know a bit more about it, wheelset, groupset etc. Link or photos would be useful

 

[Gunk]

That’s a good buy for £500

Esp the postage at £3.48
It’s a very weak description, check he has proof of ownership

Go try it out for size assuming it’s local. Should be pretty unused, Walton on Thames isn’t known for its mountains

 

[Gunk]

It looks like new. Let us know how you get on

 

[huggybear0]

What would you say it is worth? Just concerned it 2013.

 

[Gunk]

It’s worth £450 - £500

The only thing is the seller has been on eBay for since 2009 and has no sales etc to see his feedback?? He said he is selling to buy the family a puppy. I will check out ownership. Is there a way of checking the frame number
