Are these prices normal? Most of these bikes are over a decade old. I offer 50% and they say I’m lowballing but I think I’m closer to the price than they are. Let me know… bike market is crazy

You’re not, but these sellers and others like them absolutely are.
Most people on this sub think anything with rim brakes is worthless but yeah… 10-year-old carbon bikes? Low-ball away. The thing with these is their owners don’t actually need to sell. Maybe they want a new bike, maybe their spouse wants more room in the garage but at the end of the day they’re happier with the bike than realizing the loss. And honestly … I regret selling a lot of bikes I sold for way less than I had into them and I want them back.
I mean those were top of the line, I can’t see if that blue madone is full sram red, but the groupset is sold on ebay for 400-500 still. It’s so light and for those of us who are actually racing on these bikes it’s great. I wouldn’t sell my rim brake supersix on carbon wheels for 750 bucks either.
Aspirational pricing for sure.
This is like a 400 dollar bike at most
These are crazy prices. Well, that would assume they’ll sell. They’re crazy asks at those amounts. What the.
Where you at? I’ve got an S Works from 2013 I’d sell you for less than these bikes.
The felt is sweet. You could find a compact force crankset to swap out the 53/39 and ride that forever. Has the classic looks too.
