Bike price review - Lemmy.World

I found a Specialized Allez Sport (2014) that a bike shop is pricing at $425. It has rim brakes and downtube shifters. Is this a decent deal?

I don’t know but here’s what this site says:

bicyclebluebook.com/…/2014 Specialized Allez Spor…

$141 - $230 USD, in very good condition

Maybe it has some nicer after market component upgrades?

Ah thanks. I guess I won’t be buying it then.

This is my first bike since I was a kid so I don’t know what after market add-ons they made. It’s weird b/c this bike shop has a good reputation for being fair. I wonder what they were thinking behind that pricing.

could be your location, could be demand. take a look at your local craigslist or fb marketplace and see how much comparable bikes are going for.
