Firstly, nm/na, secondly that must be a Hell of a bike.

That bike is worth ~1200 maybe 1500 if everything is good on it. It's not really that expensive and is a few years old. Minimal rust? Ha, he'd be lucky to find a 2002 that runs well enough to safely drive home for that price, let alone one with minimal rust.

The guy is actually asking $1250 for it.

My Specialized Tarmac with full Ultegras cost me twice as much as my 02, but they are totally different beasts. I ride with a guy that just got a Cervelo that cost him upwards of $10K. Crazy stuff this biking, I tell ya.

haha, that's what you get for spending 5 years of doing nothing but biking/working in bike shops.

Yeah, my bikes combined are still a bit more than my cars combined(3) and that's paying employee price for nearly all of it...if my DH bike were pieced together at an online retailer it would still be ~7500, even higher if it were a local shop.

Road bikes though...those people have the cash to drop. The shop I worked at had a few locations around town and our road shop had the most inconsistent revenue because some months you'd sell a few 5-7K road bikes and end up way ahead of the previous month's sales.

Both biking and '02s are awesome and always put a smile on my face whether it be a long road ride or some sloppy muddy DH.
