    Hey folks, just looking for a bit of feedback on this bike.
    Unfortunately I discovered the n+1 principal is in fact finite at some point (if ye want to stay married...and even if the wife is a cyclist :eek: :o ) and so with great regret, my beloved SST has to go, as I'm getting a new machine in March.

    Was thinking maybe 1000eur would be ideal if I could get it - so calling on the boundless knowledge and experience in here to see if you might think that's under/over-valued?


    Bought new in Jan 2013

    I used it for 2013 / 2014 and 2015 - replaced it in Feb 2016 then, and its been a spare/backup since then with almost zero usage. Sportif usage only, never raced.

    Aero chainrings, Hbars/tape, and wheels were all upgraded from the originals (they're the original wheels in the photos as the 50mm Carbones I replaced them with are still perfect and I want them)
    Chain, cassette, BB, Headset were replaced several times (e.g. that chain has only 1300km on it)

    Cons:
    - 2012 D12 (so it's only 10-speed)
    - 25,000km in total on it

    Any feedback would be appreciated....

    Seems reasonable. Might take a while to shift.

    Beautiful bike but you'll be hard pushed to get €1,000.

    Regardless of condition etc. most people would be very reluctant to shell that out on a 7 year old bike. They'll be thinking about getting €500 off a €1,000 bike on the bike to work scheme.

    You'll probably shift it quicker around the €750 mark but whatever you do keep it under the psychological €1,000 mark.

    It really depends on how much someone wants electronic shifting.

    What size is it? Very large or small is going to be a much smaller market than medium. Maybe try selling at the higher price and drop down if there's no interest. Ten speed may put some off.
