FS: Carrera Centos "Olympic" LE M/Bike
Hi,

I have been thinking of selling my 2012 Carrera Centos 18 inch Mountain Bike as i bought it but have only ridden it a hand full of times as due to work i just dont seem to have the time to get out and ride and for a great bike it needs to be used, its just had its first service a couple of moths ago and not used since, its std spec but i have upgraded the Brakes to Hayes Hyd brakes as i dont on do Mech brakes and wider Handle bars.

The bike new was £329.99 plus the Hayes brakes i bought for over £100 so i am looking for £275.00 ovno so if anyone is interested then let me know as i might just let it go Thumbs Up

Will put up pics of the bike itself when i get home later Thumbs Up

Thanks Chris, its just not being used and would like it to go to someone that would use it and just looked on the Halfords website and it says its a bike worth well over this price so i hope someone will buy it but but im not in a rush Wink

£100 is nearer the mark second hand. You'd be better off keeping it.

Even Steptoe and Son would pass on a used, modified Halfords bone-shaker.

It's a shame because it's not a bad bike, but Halfrauds stuff doesn't have a great reputation, and as said above, 2nd hand bikes don't sell that well. Halfrauds often have 50% off at Bank Holiday weekends which further undermines 2nd hand prices.

Suggest you try Gumtree, and the noticeboard at the back of your local Tesco - you may be lucky Thumbs Up

Good luck. Defender "Puma" 2.4 110 County Utility (possibly the last of the 2.4's)
