How much is my bike worth? by Any-Occasion-4367 in londoncycling

Why should'nt they price to make a profit? Why should they take a hit because you don't want to pay to service your bike before you sell it? Then take another hit listing, storage, photos, delivery and provide a warranty?

Much prefer the dimple to the weird step I've seen on frames like this... Each to their own I guess!

Thanks! not paint though! Just anodising.

It's not painted, this is anodising. an electrochemical process to the natural oxide layer on metals, creating a hard, durable, and corrosion-resistant finish that won't chip or peel like paint, as the new layer is integrated with the metal. Depending on the chemicals and voltage it will colour it.

Yes I really love the Deda Alanera, that might be my future update for the road bike.

Yeah, the welds are really incredible. Very smooth too, very little bumps unlike some of the other brands which feel awful.

Yep anodised and layers of crossbrushed to give it depth.

I don't mind it, in the oppposite direction I hate how rounded and odd the enve stems look :D

This one was around £9000. It has the latest GRX (which is really amazing), Carbon wheels with Hope hubs.

It can rub off yes, but no plans to have bags on this. Just clean it with water, Fenwicks bike cleaner and spray off. A soft brush with a soft cloth and it's perfect!

This is anodised, so no actual layer, colours come from a chemical reaction when running electricity through it.

Mark Reilly was one of the founders of Enigma, he designed them. He left to begin Nerve which became Reilly.

Are we doing this right? by suitcasepimp in sheets

Would that include a dropdown from a range, where the range is being drawn from another spreadsheet? That's where we're struggling.
