I'm going to be selling my Felt soon and I've taken off all of the assorted goodies I customized and replaced them with the originals. I might be interested in selling some of them but I'm feeling lazy and unmotivated about packing them up and shipping them, and also unsure about a few items (maybe I should keep them just i case?). But I thought I'd gauge interest out there -- would anyone have any interest in the following items if I decided to sell them :D?

1) Ritchey Pro Biomax handlebar, 38cm, 26.0 diameter
2) Ritchey Pro stem, 90mm, 73 deg, 26.0 diameter (matches bars, & both are in excellent condition). Note: matched with a 73 deg head tube angle, this produces a zero-rise stem (parallel to the ground). See picture below.
3) So, I have a Thomson Masterpiece seatpost. It was kinda spendy (I wanna say $120 or so?). It's not the right diameter for my new carbon bike, so it won't do me any good right now. But I know if I sell it I won't get more than maybe $30 or $40, and if for some reason I ever wanted a 27.0 seatpost in the future, I'd have to lay out cash again to get one... So I have no reason to expect that I'll need it again, but still I feel torn...
4. Half considering selling my pink Arione because I like white on my new bike. It's not in perfect condition, but I have extra pink bartape...
5. & a set of bubblegum pink bontrager race lite cages (plastic). these are great cages actually, hold bottles very tightly with no rattling but also very easy in/out.

alright, so I really do want to sell the stem & bars. not sure about the other stuff yet but let me know if you're interested. Since I guess it's hard to make a decision without prices --

bars $40 including shipping (I'm guessing shipping is going to be around $10 for these, a bit more expensive than for most items I've shipped before because they will require a large & perhaps oddly-dimensioned box).
stem $35 including shipping

prices are negotiable.

**please note that bar & stem are 26.0 diameter***. They are not oversized (31.8), and are not compatible with OS components.

I'm interested in the pink stuff, personally, bottle cages especially! Speaking of which, what are the pink tires you're sporting on the Felt?

gnat, those are Schwalbe Stelvios and they're going on the new bike. I think they still sell them here at TE -- a great tire!

I'm still deciding about the saddle. I have a fitting on my new bike tomorrow and hopefully I"ll get some sense of whether I like the saddle that came on it...

But I'll send you the cages for free -- I was going to say I'd send them for shipping, but honestly, I don't think it's worth our effort for $4.60.

I just looked at them though, and realized they're a little more beat up than I thought. Partly just a little grimy (I'll try to clean them up) but I noticed there's some tiny spots of light discoloration that looks like road spray -- possibly salt -- that reacted with the plastic. It's subtle enough that I wouldn't notice it on the bike, but I wanted to let you know. Also, there's a few bottle scuff marks on the inside of one of the cages.

Your call. They are free though :D.

Thanks for the tire info! You know, in all my years shopping at TE, I've never thought to look for actual bike parts...

Just sent you a PM!

Hi liza, when you get ready to sell your felt bike can you PM me with details? I'm looking for a bike and considering a used one. I live in upstate NY so I could potentially pick up.

Thanks! mk
