So on my local marketplace there’s this ad for a while now. I’ve been low key eyeballing it for a couple of weeks. What do you guys think of the price €1400.
⸻
2×11 speed
Shimano 105 rear derailleur and STI shifters (as good as new)
GRX crankset and front derailleur (as good as new)
New cassette and chain
XT cantilever brakes
XTR pedals
Stronglight headset with needle bearings
3 bottle cages
New wheelset and new Soma Cazadero tan wall tires, new bar tape
Hyacinth front rack (deduct €50 if the front rack is not included)

Is this an excuse to buy something new?!??

That’s about 50 percent off from the retail price I believe for a complete bike. If it’s in good condition and components aren’t worn, it’s probably a good deal if that’s the type of bike you’re looking for. If it’s been up for awhile you might see if you can get it for less, but it would be a solid bike for sure for the price. The steer tube is cut way too short for me!
I bought a used frame recently of that bike and built it up. It’s such a great bike.
Dooo iiiit. Super sick bikes. A bunch of my friends have them and I’m jealous. I popped in the shop in Point Reyes and it’s super cool.
Just test rode a Black Mountain Cycles bike the other day at the local co-op. Felt unexplainably high quality. Reminded me of the time I test rode a Rivendell. Just something special about them that is hard to explain.
