Generally less than you may think. Time of year and the fact that the frame is already 1/2 price new would kill any real expectations imo.
Full bike max 1k.
Frame only 400ish.

Commencal have a terrible reputation for frame breakages. Even with new the warranty process is a nightmare.
They are good bikes but a poor reputation is hard to shake off.

Unless you’re not riding it at all, its worth more to you.
Keep it and do 50 miles a year rather than take a bi hit just to make space.

Was my guess too.

You might get a bit more by selling the components separately but you then have the hassle of multiple listings, postal charges etc.

thanks for all your input.
I figured someone would mention warranty but its irrelevant on secondhand anything
I think ill break it and sell it in bits.

Yeah I saw that but the seller did concede he had underpriced it.

I've got a frame sat in the loft waiting for spring to, err, spring before I try and shift it.

I could sell it now by dropping the price, perhaps I won't have to drop it so far come spring?

Good luck selling it!

I’m in no rush to do anything with it really.
The 1/2 price frame that monkey refers to is the HT AM version this is the Trail which I think has much better lines and is under 2kg.
Good luck with your sale too Martin.

I'm in a similar position with my MK1 853 Prince Albert.
I could sell it and not make much money or I could keep it and just let it become cool and retro
