It's 4 years old and does have a few marks but mechanically it's fine, I understand that it's a 26er so some might consider it dated, so what do you think it's worth then?
£600?
That's roughly what I was thinking, I've been trying to believe its a bit more but want to be realistic!
What size is it? When were the forks serviced?
How old is the drivetrain? Is the chain stretched? How are the bearings in the headset and bottom bracket?
Etc etc etc etc
That age in tip top condition it's £500 max. Anything wrong and the value comes down.
£600 is a good deal i think.
£500 or less is an insult. IMHO anyway.
I've had a few bikes come and go over the last few years but my Orange P7 pro (more or less identical to yours, maybe a year older) is a bike I shall never get rid of, ever. It just feels so right. Other bikes have felt 'so right' too but theres something different about my P7 that I cant let it go. Love??!
£600 sounds about right.........but you'll regret onece you sell it! Dont do it!

Ballpark guesses, adds up to £750 in bits, so 600 for a complete bike sounds bang on.
