Jairus is trying to sell his bike?

Hey Triple Shot-ers

I have been given a bike offer that I can't refuse; basically, if I can sell my road bike within a week, I am looking at a swish new set-up, which would be a step up from what I have...

Moving up to steel eh?

[jairus]

From talking to people, I now realize that I may have completely overpriced this bike for what it is worth.

I apologize to all those who now percieve me as being completelly ignorant when is comes to the depreciation of bicycle value.

Besides, this dude named Lance once told me its not about the bike..

Tell me about it Jairus. I saw a bike at the UVic tri sale that was similar vintage to mine, for $259. I'm exagerating a bit, as mine at least have sti, but I think we spend more on coffee in a month than my bikes are worth. Ah well, you could always keep it and join the retro grouches like me and whine about how bike technology is mostly fashion. (Doesn't that sound appealing?)
