Do the calculations and you will see netting the $250 after tires or selling as is will net you more. otherwise everyone would be making a small fortune selling old bike parts , right? Wrong!
Well, I already sell bike parts on Ebay. I sell a few parts a week and have over 50 listed. Some Mondays I go to the post office with 5 or 6 packages. Amazon and the local bike shop gives me all by boxes, packages, and packing material, foam and bubble wrap for free. Post office is close by also. Besdies, if I am wrapping parts while watching Dancing with the Stars in the evening that is not wasted time. I would just be sitting on my butt anyays. So I would disagree with your assessment.

I did not know it was Triomphe, so thank you.

I have a pile of 700c tires all of which are like new, so replacement tires are essentially free.

But yes, I imagine there is a slim market for this. I'll probably part it out. Thank you.
