Novara Metro Hybrid/Mountain Bike (XL Frame)
- Fair market value
- $100 - $150
- Retail price new
- $450 - $550
The bike is a Novara Metro (REI's house brand), which is generally a solid, reliable entry-level commuter. The $120 asking price is fair for the SF Bay Area market, where bike prices are inflated. However, the listing mentions the 'back brakes aren't the best,' implying immediate maintenance is required (likely pads or cables). The ad has been up for 4 months, suggesting the seller might be struggling to move it, likely due to the mechanical issue or the large XL size. It's a decent buy if you are handy with tools, but negotiating down to $100 would make it a 'Good Deal'.
