Good time to sell?

So been holding out putting 2 bikes up for sale - Did not see any point listing whilst we were in lockdown as 'collecting a bike' is not exactly essential travel but with restrictions now easing and Spring weather coming in I am thinking now maybe a good time.
Especially given the shortage of new bikes.
If you had 2 bikes would you be listing now or waiting til summer? Obviously I want to maximise return.
For ref the bikes in question are:
* Trek Emonda SL5 Disc 2020 - Emarld Iris green (Flips from green to purple)
* Merlin Malt G gravel bike - Mk1
Both are medium so I think I will get a good audience.
Thoughts?

I'd go for it and list now. I sold a bike a couple of months ago for the same amount I bought it for and that had been after 3 more years of use.
I don't think the market will be any hotter then it is now. Basically nothing is in stock right now.0 -
I agree, it's a great time to sell.
But it's not a great time to buy - so if you are selling to buy something else then it might all balance itself out.0 -
Thanks will get them posted then, not buying anything else so should get good money0
