Sid the Sloth Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 Cannondale. I heard there may be a lumo green one coming to the classifieds soon Pure Savage 1
EddieV Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 If you were closer to EC (to view), I would say negotiate with this guy .... I've always been a Cannondale Synapse fan, ... this one's got discs, carbon, and looks like hydraulic 11-speed? https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/road-bikes/453976/cannondale-synapse-carbon-disc-2018
Underachiever Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 I think you're being optimistic seeing that the blue book value is only around R25k https://www.bicyclebluebook.com/value-guide/product/3061515/Nice site :-)

Great frame - good spec, Probably abt 7.5kg. Mark Goosen 1

Craai Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 didn't know that site. Glad to see the value for my bike is higher than what I paid for it almost a year ago. but 2nd hand value is very different according to the market, I don't really see how what an american site says applies for the SA market. Plus with all the clowns that automatically offer you 10k less than your asking price no matter how you price your item, you kind of have to price a bit higher anyways Yeah, I don't think the site is bullet proof with regards to price estimations, just a good indicator.At the end of the day the bike is worth what someone is willing to pay for it
Craai Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 Seller said price was negotiable - I would have offered R30k odd. Great frame - good spec, Probably abt 7.5kg. True, but also tech that is 5 years old already. Also, bike has obviously been ridden in the past 5 years so you have to factor in the depreciation. It's been discussed before https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/141242-determining-the-value-to-sell-your-second-hand-bike-at; I think a figure was mentioned of 20% off when you walk out the shop (ie second hand, irrespective of age) and then 10% pa thereafter. Seems to be a pretty good guideline (although with the current shortage of bikes you might be able to do a little bit better)
OVERDRIVE Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 IMHO, if there is a little more in the kitty, this is brand new from the box: https://bike-addict.co.za/collections/titan/products/titan-vanquish-elite-2021
Pure Savage Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 Here we go: https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/road-bikes/450765/cannondale-supersix-evo Ask for the wheels as well for R30k. Sid the Sloth 1
Pure Savage Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/road-bikes/463850/cannondale-super-six-carbon This also looks sweet! Sid the Sloth and Jensie 2
Moult Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/road-bikes/464600/scott-foil-15-carbon-di2-mint Without knowing your size or any other preference I just set the filters from 10 to 30K I'm not even sure if this is a good deal , but there are some very nice bikes going 2nd hand.I know Crain really well and can assure you he doesnt sell crap. Very open honest guy. That looks like a great deal on a nice bike!

Seems to be a pretty good guideline (although with the current shortage of bikes you might be able to do a little bit better)Agree.. But consider this - the tech difference is marginal to say the least. Both frame and parts. But I am bit different...I am very used NOT to ride the latest & greatest, whilst still getting pretty good results. My training bike is a 2004 Giant TCR carbon with a 10spd Centaur groupset that is just getting to wear in nicely. I even do the occasional Vets race with it.
