No thanks... that price is far too high!

 

Are you being funny or is that price really too high...? If that's too high it's scary to think how little my bike is worth now..

Its a 26er. That exact bike was sold brand new by my lbs for 15-18k.

Reba fork and x9 x0 mix.

 

Edit..

Not that exact bike. But same model different spec.

Looking at that crank and brakes and upgrades, there is no way the owner of such a bike would pawn his bike at Crusaders

 

Possibly... but let's say Cash Crusaders offered him 10k... I personally that would be a fair price for a quite an old, 2nd hand, 26" cross country bike.

 

BTW, there's nothing fancy about that generation of XX brakes. In fact, they should pay the buyer to take those brakes! Notorious for failing!

Truth in jest... I said it as a joke, but it is pretty true.

 

Go look though the hub clasfieds and once you filter though all the chancers, and people who have a warped sense of bike value, you'll see that when it comes to a 26" XC bike that's 3-4years old... 12k actually gets one quite a lot.
