Mudsimus Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Hi All. I am thinking of buying the below bike from a friend and want to know what I should pay for it? No more than half the price of a new one.

[/quote'] It is alimunium and carbon hence the name Six13! Cannondale does not use Ti!! December 2008 is still coming!!Scalpel2008-09-08 01:43:38
dylankeyter Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 If your friend is very generous, he will 'give it to you' for R20k, that is one mad ride.
Mudsimus Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Maybe they will be using TI in December 2008...
Zaskar Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 The Six13 is not titanium, its an aluminium and carbon frame. Thats why its called six13, six - atomic number of Carbon, 13 - atomic number of Aluminium. Its an older bike now, and was made in a few different models. You really need to check wich year and model the Six13 you mention is. 'like new' could mean anything, but the fact is that it is second hand, and you will not be covered under the warranttee. Also im curious how it could be a December 2008? Cannondale dont do compact frames, so your medium size could mean anything. They came in standard sizes, 52,54,56,58 etc. Check that as well, and make sure the top tube length will fit you. As for a price, i would say around 15k. that was all i could get for mine, which had a very similar build to the one you are describing. check it here... https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=19119
Chain-L Posted September 8, 2008 Author Posted September 8, 2008 Sorry, It is alu/carbon and Dec 2007. Hi Zaskar, did you let yours gor for R15 000 even though you adverttised for R25 000 just because you could not get buyers? What must I offer for this beast?
Zaskar Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Ok, that gives us a much better idea. Thats a newer frame than mine was, probably the 2006 model. Mine was advertised with the Zipps for R25000, but then I sold them off seperatly. When i sold it for R15000, i sold it with a pair of Ksyrium SL's, thats why the price dropped. I would say offer the guy max R18000, and see what he says. Its a great bike, and honestly worth more, but its a really difficult market. If you break it down, what would you pay for the parts secondhand? Frame - R7000, Groupset - R5000, Wheels - R4000, other bits, maybe R2500. So that gives you aguide for a second hand value. Depends on how desperate this guy is to sell. Mine took me three months before i got a buyer!
Rich Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 I just built up this bike with Easton EA 90 wheels and Easton carbon stem and bars fizik saddle etc. - some second hand parts. Nearly new DA groupset with carbon crank and it cost me about R24k. I bought the frame on ebay, hardly used - (2006 model) for R5000. If you get that bike for under 20K I would say it is a good deal!
Spinnekop Posted September 8, 2008 Posted September 8, 2008 Nice bike.Still miss my old Six13!!! I think R20 would be a good deal.

stringbean Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Nice bike.Still miss my old Six13!!! I think R20 would be a good deal. Too much,saw a 52cm System six (liquie gas) record at my lbs for 25K second hand,not a scratchstringbean2008-09-12 07:13:26
Jokerman Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 I'd say between R15k and R17k As Zaskar I to sold mine Six 13 for R17k which was about the same spec...if not a wee bit higher as I had all the ITM Millenium Bling on my bike...........damm I miss my bike, she was a real beaut
Rich Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 Hey - what did you offer? Have you bought it yet?
turtlek Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 if you do buy that bike change the bottle cages they are K@K but other than that i would say between 15-17k would be a decent offer
