@ PlunderPath667 that's funny you mention ease of use and without saying it, being able to post it (knowing that service will have the highest success rate) in one place. Maybe I'm putting words in your mouth, but this is exactly where I've seen a hole in the buying and selling... it takes a long time to sell things, it...

They seem to be the autotrader of bikes in my opinion, just due to their existing user base starting a dedicated site would be a pretty big undertaking.

Clearly, a lot have but I think there's a larger audience that's unaware/ unfamiliar versus aware. When selling bikes, I usually post on both those too. One or...
Hi guys, I've been buying and selling bikes since I was 13. I took 19 years off from biking and got back into it when I was 31 (I'm 33 today). Back in 2003, I bought and sold my Trek Bruiser 2, a RS Boxxer World Cup (in that beautiful red) and worked all summer to buy a used 2002...
