How much do you think my bike is worth in €?
#1
Hello everyone!

I am relatively new to this forum and the world of cycling so I am in need of your help!

About a month ago I purchased a second hand Genesis Mountain bike for 90€ in Austria.

I instantly fell in love with it as it is my first ever bike but now since I have to move and I cannot take it with me I have to sell it.

This is where your help comes handy, I do not know at how much I should price the bike for. After talking to a few bike shop owners they told me that the previous owner undersold his bike and that I can get more for it but never really specified how much more.
It has a 24 Shimano gear shifter and 28inch wheels.

If you could look at the pictures and assume the worth of the bike I would be very grateful.
Also, if you could recommend another platform other than secondhand website, Willhaben, that I can sell it on I will also be very very thankful.

Thank you in advance.

Hey Aleksa.
Here is the same Genesis Oregon AX bike model sold for 190€ on Willhaben: https://www.willhaben.at/iad/kaufen-und-verkaufen/d/genesis-oregon-ax-trekkingbike-400708838/

I'd say go for 150€. Put it up also on Facebook marketplace (you'll probably get a lot of ridiculous offers though) and look for Facebook groups - search "Fahrradflohmarkt Wien". Does your bike ride well, without any issues?


Edit: oh I assumed that you're situated in Vienna. Are you?

Hey Zviedrs,

I cannot explain how thankful I am for your generous help.
I am in Vienna. I've listed the bike on WillHaben and Facebook as you have suggested.
Thank you so much for your help again!

Best regards and stay safe,
Aleksa!

You are welcome!
Feel free to get back to me here with some updates, once the bike is sold. I'm curious about it.

Hey Zviedrs,

I just sold the bike on WillHaben for 150€. I have had a lot of offers on FacebookMarketplace but all were too low.
Thank you so much for your help once again.

Hey Aleksa,
you are welcome and that's great news! Thanks for the update, great to hear that it's been positive.
I have also bought some items via Willhaben in the past Smile
