Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Help Appraising CAAD 10

I'm selling a Cannondale CAAD 10 for my Son-in-law and do not have a clue on pricing. It is a 2014 model, with Shimano RS80 carbon fiber wheel set.
I don't know if the rest of the components are standard for the bike. (SL-K crankset, Ultegra brakes, Dura-Ace derailleur. Any ballpark price would be great.

Thanks!

Thanks ARPRINCE. It looks like the bike is the CAAD 10 Ultegra version, but with a different derailleur. Is the Dura-Ace an upgrade from the Ultegra derailleur? Also I would assume the RS80 rims will add something to the price?

Click on the CAAD10 Ultegra, then on the landing page, click on ADD CUSTOM OPTIONS for the upgrades added to the bike to get a better estimate.

BB lists the bike in stock form for under $700 in 'Excellent' condition. The value listed on this site are biased toward buyers, and are totally undervalued. Your bike, with stock wheels, around here would easily fetch $1200-1500. The carbon wheels might add a couple hundred to the price. It might be market-specific, but $700 is very much undervalued.

If you listed it $700 I'd jump at it in a heart beat, even though I wouldn't know what to do with another aluminum bike.

Last gen frame
Mis-matched componentry (even if they are high end)
Out of production wheels

It's 800-1000 if in perfect visual condition

Yeah. If you list the bike at the bicyclebluebook MAX value, it will likely sell quickly. If you list the bike higher than that, expect several potential buyers to send you links to bicyclebluebook.

The whole mismatched componentry thing is a total joke.
1st off- bikes used to always be 'mismatched' even when the components were grouped together by distributors for companies to more easily spec bikes(based on performance to cost ratio). A DuraAce FD on a bike with Ultegra isnt a downgrade(or really an upgrade). Its just a different model that works seamlessly as part of the system with no downside. That isnt mismatched, its actually perfectly matched.
2ndly- bikes come spec'd 'mismatched' all the time, especially Cannondale. Most every brand has many road bikes with 'mismatched' cranks, and/or brake calipers, and/or hubs. As long as everything works as part of a system though, it isnt mismatched.


And what does it matter if wheels are still in production or not? It should matter if they work well and are in good condition.



These just seem like excuses without substance rather than legit reasons for a bike's value to be reduced. It would be great if users moved away from viewing a bike as good if everything matches and less than ideal if the components dont match. For example, a 5800 and 6800 FD weight the same and perform the same. It shouldnt be viewed negatively to have either on a bike with the other level drivetrain.
I am not even speaking to your guess at price, just the reasons behind the price. $800-1000 may be accurate.

A photo and complete list of parts would help.

Pricing of goods - especially of used goods - is driven more by perception than be earnestly assessed intrinsic value.

Which is why a 2017 "model year" bike might ask at 20% less than a 2018, despite being identical other than paint color. Or why the 6800FD costs more than the 5800, even if - as you say - they are functionally the same.

People like original componentry, and they like sets. Factory-original cars sell better than cars 'upgraded' with aftermarket parts. Main street Mustangs, not just vintage porsches and ferraris.

I realize manufacturers sometimes mis-match components. Outside of exceptions like Cannondale's up-market SiSL+SpideRing combo, it is always *perceived* as a negative. here, for example Bike press gives companies good marks for speccing "full groups".

Why was something changed? Was the item crashed-out? Was it ridden hard and wore out? I googled this wheel and its not for sale. It pre-dates the bike.

The bike likely isnt going to anyone of us. It's going to go to the person asking the questions above. To whom a non-original "brand new set" of 1900g Ksyriums is going to carry more sparkle in the ads, than some non-original outdated model. Again, unless its a vintage ferrari, the public equation is that older = worse.

I tried to load photos, but you can't upload photos on this forum, only link to a web site where the photo is hosted. And guess what, Bike Forums won't let me link until I've posted 15 times. So no joy.

Put a space in the link somewhere to break the link, then you should be able to post it.
