New bike affordability

[Ana]

Would you sell your current bike(s) to offset part of the cost? Anything else you could sell - unused equipment for other sports etc?

Yes, I would sell my LeMond, as the new bike would be its replacement. Unfortunately, I don't think it would offset the cost that much to sell it in comparison to the potential bike.

I would keep my Trek 830 because I love it to death The fit is very good, it's comfortable and I have lots of neat accessories on it One of the perks is that I can ride it and lock it outside without having to worry about it

As for selling other things...I don't really have much clutter. I usually sell/give away stuff I do not need The hobbies I do have are few and relatively inexpensive--cycling is probably the most extravagant one

I would also like to try kayaking and mountain biking (list is still in progress) but those will have to wait for now I am very satisfied with cycling for the time being
