How much should ask for my Surly LHT?

Postby Mike Ayling » Wed Jun 17, 2020 2:38 pm

About 2007 model (blue/grey paint) Maybe 20,000km.
XT hubs in those days.
Converted to V Brakes.
Not ridden for the last five years since I got my Thorn Mercury mit Rohloff.
Just taking up space in the shed.

How much should I ask for it?

What size is it?

I think you should ask $20 for it. I'll take it!

OK, I guess that it is worth more than $20

It is a 56cm.

Any more suggestions?

Depending on condition and accessories if any I would estimate up to $1000? How much are they new? I have one myself by the way as well as a Rohloff Thorn Raven Tour. I like both bikes but the Surly is getting more use than the Thorn lately.

I hear bikes are selling well on Gumtree at the moment, so you can probably ask a premium price.

The price in 2007 was $1,650.
it is bog standard without any extras.
I think I will offer at $800 and see how I go and drop if nobody bites.

That's a good buy and a reasonable price I'd reckon.
