I don't think I'll be happy with any price I'll get as I spent round 6k on this bike (purchase included)...so I'll probably end up passing it onto my wife for some more memories...I had amazing rides with it...

There you have it, the main thing is what the bike is worth to you. If you want R5000 for it, put it in the classifieds for R5k. 

 

At the end of the day is is your bike and you get to sell it for whatever you please

Unfortunately you never really get your money back with upgrades, bikes, motorbikes, cars all the same.

 

Good luck with sale, or just keep it!

Convert it to single speed and keep it as a fun / back up bike. :clap:  :clap: :clap:  

 

You'll never be happy with what you can get, particularly if it was your first bike (emotional attachment, etc, etc).

 

I use my SS for short high intensity rides to strengthen my legs.

i need a second hand Rockshox for my spare bike. Where can you get an entry level Rockshox for that price?

 

I can sell you a Fox Terralogic F80, straight steerer if you are interested.

With the introduction of 27.5 and 29ers ...the resale value of 26 ers has been negatively influenced.

The guys who paid upwards if R30K for their 26 ers were selling them at around R10k.

so sadly the best advice is keep it or Give it to a needy biker (reward,,,priceless)
