    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    It's definitely softer for sure, and this may be the beginning of a recession which means money will become scarcer, especially cash so I would consider selling your bikes sooner than later. If the recession is deeper and longer similar to 2008, I wouldn't be surprised if a Pro Closet doesn't...

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Agree with you A.S., just have to wait for expectations to come back down to earth....when that will be is another question, just going to have to be patient.

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    That's interesting about the Bike Exchange which leads me to believe the prices can come down some more on used bike prices, its all about supply and demand :) Yes I agree, I think most people think their kids will inherit the bike at some point or perhaps another family member, but if its an...

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Yes, I agree with you there, the prices are coming down but there seems to be a floor, I might have to wait until the spring when I come into more money...although others might have more money as well around that time...perhaps January will be the time to strike since it is right before tax...

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Wow so supply chain issues are still an issue, wonder if they will ever be the same again with all the craziness going on around the world.

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Actually I made the mistake of riding a new Trek on some trails on my trip to Virginia, rented it for the day and had a blast, it was a big difference from my old bike. But still, I do not ride enough, nor have the budget to spend 2500-3500 on a new bike, anyway us with our first world problems ;)

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    lol I bought my first full suspension bike new in 2008 for 1200 bucks, i looked at the prices of new bikes and was like heck no way, so figured I'd get a 5 year old middle tier full suspension bike for 1000 bucks, but then coved happened and things went sideways, been looking again because I see...

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    That's interesting that Pros Closet is not purchasing older bikes, any idea what year is the cut off?

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Agree Qclabrat, the frenzy and pandemic buying made every bike sellable, and at a premium, that is definitely gone. But yes, it does seem the more well known brands that are well specced out have more resilient elevated prices.

    Is the inflated Bike market finally crashing?

    Not sure if this has been posted prior, or been discussed in previous threads, but do you guys think the inflated used (especially used) and new bike markets are starting to deflate? I am starting to see price cuts but still feel that some prices need to come down a bit more. And do you think I...

    Deer Park Tuesday 5:30pm

    Ya, I think you were just a little early Lou :) You should start to get more responses now that the weather is warming up and the rain has stopped :) I have a weird schedule but do have some Tuesdays available, when I do have one off I should be able to get out there with my 13 year old son...

    deerpark and stephens combo (5,582 elev.)

    I've done half that ride with my son. It's pretty much in our back yard, the elevation it a bitch. But it's probably more in the 500-800ft range...which is still nuts. Most of the time we end up walking the bikes up, perhaps one day when we get good enough we will ride it all the way up.
