This is not an Ad, I'm merely playing with the idea of selling my cyclo-cross bike as I don't use it enough to justify the space in the garage.

Question is how much could I expect to get for it?

It's a 54cm Kinesis Crosslight Pro4 bought September '06. with 105 9 speed drivechain and Truativ cranks on a 46/39 double. Wheels are Alex rims (not sure which) on 105 hubs. Also a few nice upgrades like Froggleg cantis and Cinelli oversize alloy handlebars.

Overall the bike is in great nick (only used for the odd commute and two 'cross rides) and I think I paid £950 for it.

Cheers.

    All depends on how well it's been looked after I suppose. But if, as you say, it's in good condition, £350 - £400 seems reasonable. You could always try ebay with a low reserve and see how you get on?

    Top end of what carlmac says I think given (minor) upgrades and if "great nick". I've been watching crossers on th'bay for a few weeks and probably worth auctioning it.

    I reckon you would get more for it if you kept it til just before the next cross season.

    Good point, but won't it have also depreciated by a further 6-7 months?
