Hi All

I have the opportunity to purchase a second hand TCR Advanced T-Mobile ISP bike full durace groupset but the wheels have been replaced with a brand new Shimano RS10 Wheelset and new tyres its in a shop and I know the owner its been very well looked after and is giving 1 yrs warrenty with it the Intergrated seat post has not been cut as it fitted him without cutting,

Here is a link to what bike it is so just looking for what people think its worth second hand with cheaper wheelset

    It's a 3-year old used bike and obsolete groupset - I'd say £2k tops particularly with the cheaper wheels. The team paintjob supresses it's value too as everyone knows it's an 'old' bike.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    That is being very optimistic. I wouldn't give more than £1k for that.

    Great bike, friend has the non ISP version. Rides so well, so alive and just feels fantastic to me. A 100% like new, perfect condition frame and fork has to be worth £600 Id say, but anything less than absolute mint, any scratches at all and I be looking for less than that. If it was me I wouldnt be interested in all that shimano stuff on it though, so Id just be looking for how much I could get for all those bits on eBay to replace it with stuff I wanted.

    I think 2k is a little optomistic so I say 1.5k for that depending on condition of frame and components.

    Is actually up for 1600 its had brand new bar wrap, chain and rear cassette (think cassette if ultegra) chainset still looks very good condition it does look mint as well looked after, i felt still a little expensive but easy to foget how much they were new I suppose but looking around theres a few bargains to be had new for 1600 too so in a bit of a dilema.
