It's funny you list the bottle cage as a selling point rather than the wheels or the groupset!

HI redcard, I am really happy I make you laugh, I have loads more if you want me to send them to you.....if you genuinely interested that's fine I will help you as much as I can (the pics kind of give you a clue of the groupset) if not please go and pleasure yourself elsewhere, many thanks.

Albeit with a touch of sarcasm, redcard is actually trying to help you sell the bike.
We can all see the bar tape and tyres are nicely colour co-ordinated, but you might have more luck if you provide some technical specs.
Personally I find having to go hunting through the pics to find the rear mech is SRAM Apex and therefore the rest of the groupset might be the same is less than ideal marketing.
What's the frame made of? ICBA to go looking up specs on Halfords website, even if 2012 model details are still there.
"Low miles" what does that mean ?
Where is the bike now? Prospective buyers might want to come and look at it before parting with cash?

Hi Pete, pictures paint a thousand words however any 'interested' cyclist can contact me and I will be more than happy to go through any questions or queries they may have if you CBA looking up specs then that's fine..i personally think its quite useful but thanks for your input.

You had absolutely zero interest in your bike so far. Do you not ask yourself why?

To be honest, it looks rather suspicious when you list the colour coordinated bar tape but not list any specs whatsoever.

I shouldn't have to go researching your bike - you're the one trying, and failing, to sell it.

Get rid of the hideous tape, it'll sell quicker.

Redcard I have tried to be polite with you, please go away and myther someone who is remotely interested in what you have to say.

Moderators: All pics and details are on the ad as per forum rules so could you please have a word with members posting personal comments rather than genuine interest, thanks.

I seriously don't know what all the fuss is about. It is not difficult to click on a photo to see the spec., or post a message to ask for further details. I actually like the bar tape, and the bike, but already own the same model. Pictures are always way better than text, or have you only ever bought a house based on text rather than photos. If I was in the market for a bike like this, I would look to view. The only downside to me is that the location says "North"

 

[DooDah]

In fact, you don't want to sell your wheels do you, I am after a decent set?

 

[mark st1]

Very nice bike good luck with the sale. Can i ask why you sell so many good condition nearly brand new bikes in all different sizes ?

 

[coco69]

Hi Doodah, sorry these are the only wheels I have and thanks for the compliment.

Hi Mark, thanks for your that, can you ask yes, its a hobby of mine and has been for over 25 years....just to add, I only sell my bikes in superb condition.

If you do this as a hobby then I guess you sell the bikes elsewhere too.
For your next bike sale, can you please let the membership know in the ad.
And if selling on Ebay post in the auction section.
Thanks,
Ian

Hi Ian, only use bike forums for genuine cyclists not ebay, and yes thanks.
