    I have an scr 3 owned since last october. Theres 1000km up on it and is well looked after. It was only out in the rain twice. I have no time for cycling now so I might get rid of it for a good price.

    So heres the kit... Everything very well looked after and in perfect nick.

    Giant SCR 3.0 cost €700 (large frame)
    with Shimano R540 pedals - cost €55
    Cateye Astrale 8 cycle computer - cost €40

    Tacx cycleforce swing (pro trainer) cost €235 + Trainer tyre (cost €20)
    (includes box and perfectly kept packaging)

    Met helmet cost €100 (deadly design)

    Mavic aksium race rims back cost €100 front cost €90 with michelin pro race tyres with a tiagra cassette.
    These are deadly looking rims and make the bike look class along with the
    red michelins to match the colour scheme of the bike.

    About 8 or 9 spare tubes still in box.

    Foot pump - Cost €40 and is very nice.

    On bike pump - Nice, neat an handy one I got for about €15

    Car carrier - Cost €70 - nice and strong, very good quality.

    Heart rate monitor - €25


    Also have windbreaker worth €100, Thermal t-shirt, shoes, jersey if anyones interested in them.

    So there's a total of four wheels! The two originals of which one has the trainer tyre on for the tacx swing and the two mavics with michelins.


    I have no digital camera so i'm not sure if i'll be able to get pictures up.

    I would guess a rule of thumb for second-hand stuff in good condition might be 60%-70% new?

    Depending of course on what it is and what new alternatives might be currently available on sale locally or from an Irish-postage-friendly interweb retailer.

    Some stuff will fare better, I don't imagine there is much scope for anything to wear out/go wrong with a car carrier for example so I imagine wouldn't depreciate so badly.
