CycleJunkie Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 The fact of the matter is that you bought the bike at the price. If you were not happy or unsure, you should have done the research first. Willing buyer: willing seller. Personally I would not have paid so much for that one, but I did pay R4500 for a 96(?) Tommasini in steel with a 2000 DA groupset three years ago. So go figure! Value is in the eye of the beholder to mangle a homily. CycleJunkie2009-03-04 07:22:39

Mudsimus Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 If the chain and cassette arnt worn its not a bad price.
MO16V Posted March 4, 2009 Author Posted March 4, 2009 Just checked stuff again, however i did check chainring and casette is not damaged before i purchased. I found that the rear derailler and crank are Ultegra 6500. Where do i find model number on the FD and the sti levers ?? can abyone assist ???
roberto Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 What does it matter if its worth it or not? You allready bought it so if all is in working condition just get on and ride the thing
moose12 Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 MO , I know where you bought the bike , and what you bought is a bike and a service.You have got a good deal and great backup service from the store. Good luck , but you need to ride it to enjoy it. p.s to do a complete fit on its own is a few bucks !!
Eugene Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 I stand by what I said, you got a good bike for a good price. The frame in the picture is a 2007 model. That alone would sell for R1000 on the second hand market (maybe more). A pair of those Bontrager wheels were sold recently on the Hub for approx R2000. Add at least R1500.00 for a 9sp Ultregra g/set and we are already exceeding your price of R4000.00. I have seen plenty of 105 9sp Raleighs selling for R4500. Tiagra specced Raleighs go for R3500.00 there abouts
