    Looking for a minimally used ridgeback voyage on the off chance anybody has one they’re thinking of selling. They can be gotten for about €800 new, with pannier rack. I have 450 to spend, hoping to get a jack of all trades bike. There’s a2017 one on adverts for 699 which would be what I’m looking for. I’m 5 11” and fit a 56cm .Thanks for reading.

    At €800 new and 2 years old, if you need specifically that bike, I would offer €400 to your max €450. Bikes rarely hold anymore than half their RRP once over a year old.

    Where are you based? One of those is in Limerick and the other in Dublin, you should factor of getting to see the price into your bike.

    I'd write back to the first guy and tell him your offer will be there if he changes his mind but to be honest, the Masi is a nicer looking bike IMO and the price is reasonable. A few tyres included, probably need more work than the first bike but not for awhile.

    Exactly my thoughts and limerick is a pain for me to get to. I’ll go with the masi.
