It's been awhile since I've looked at used mtb's, but now that I do, it brings back a flood of lame memories.

Only been ridden 10 or 15 times? riiighhht…. now i remember why i usually just spend the extra and buy new.

Maybe he bought it used and only rode it 10-15 times? Alot of times the used market gives you alot of value especially if you're not planning to keep the bike for a long time.

Not everyone can spend $5k+ to buy a brand new bike.

There's lots of value in the market right now for buyers 'cause the used market is flooded. Spending the time could get you a great deal.

Actually buddy it has only been ridden about that, the problem with working in the bus is that you have to many bikes. this was one that never had much use. I am selling it for a friend that just moved back east. the wheelset alone is worth just about that

I know Treez(I think), he's a trustworthy guy and wouldn't bullshit people about what he's selling.

While that ad is a bad example I completely agree with what burn it to keep warm is saying. Just cruise the pinkbike buy and sell to see what I mean.

A bike or part isn't "new" if it has "only been ridden 2 months".

There's no such thing as a "crack that doesn't affect anything".

And no I don't want to buy a three year old DJ3 for $300.

There are certainly good sellers and good deals to be had, but the amount of crap you have to wade through is at times mind boggling.

Jeff, there is such thing as a dent that doesnt do anything though.

I almost want to sell my big bike, get something a bit different for next season, but ive put so much work and dedication into this bike, theres no way id let it go for like $1300.

Maybe it's only been riden 10-15 times cuz it's been in a museum? That is a classic bike.

then he shouldnt be misleading and state that in the first place.
i thought that bike was a couple years old so i doubted that its been ridden under 20 times.

you all know what i mean

by your logic i could post an ad for that bike for $1150 but say that its been ridden by jon voigt and it wouldnt matter becuase its such a good deal

Intense M3 2005 (med) silver $3600 full bike is a good deal. Ads on asilvertouch.com and mtbkanata.com

I was told that my price was way too low, but I just want to sell it cause I have a shop deal on a new one.

You'll find a good bike for a good price if you look around.

thanks Wayne,

Dave built this bike up and rarely used it. it sat at his house for a few years. so many bikes to ride so little time. now he has no house and is traveling back to TO. To big of a bike for there.
