The Catrike Trail shown in the CL listing for Elk Grove is
way overpriced at $2K. Catrike made substantial changes to their lineup in 2013, switching over from 16" front wheels to 20" front wheels, redesigning the frames, and changing the drive trains from 9 speed Shimano to 10 speed SRAM. It's much harder to find 16" tires and tubes plus the selection of brands is far fewer. This trike must be prior to 2013 so the seller is asking the MSRP for
at newest a 7 year old model. The new Trail currently sells for $2,750 but it now a folding model so the two models are not at all comparable. We all suspect that bicycle blue book is nutty when it comes to resale prices for recumbents but this seller was careful to not show the suggested resale prices. The price listed for a buyer for a 2011 Catrike Road in excellent condition is only $499-$513. That's obviously less than anyone would sell it for. I looked a couple that sold on Bentrider. The prices were in the $1100 to $1200 range which seems a lot more realistic. It is also a very low seating trike so if you need something that you don't have trouble exiting, this one may not be good.
Here is one on the Houston CL listed for $1100
