arrived to a huge welcoming and then hung around to meet the Felt family and do a few hot laps on a new DA TT bike. A bunch of us joined Pablove on the penultimate day of the tour, which rolled up the coast from San Diego to Orange County before finishing here at Felt. And we were beyond stoked when we finally got a chance to see Jeff and his sweet Felt F1 in action Friday, when the Pablove tour rolled into Felt’s headquarters in Irvine, California. Last week our friend Neal Rogers, managing editor at VeloNews, wrote about Jeff's mission is this nice piece.įelt is proud to have been with Jeff every step of the way. Jeff also conducted countless interviews and drummed up interest in his cause by capturing media attention everywhere he went. Though in many ways it was a personal journey - a way for Jeff to grieve and cope with the recent loss of his son Pablo - Pablove Across America was also a public effort that touched countless people along the way.įrom Florida to California, Jeff delivered his message by riding his bike and sharing his experiences through personal connections, Twitter posts and daily video blogs like this one that Jeff posted Sunday morning: On Saturday Jeff Castelaz pedaled the final miles of his cross-country mission to raise awareness and money to fight children’s cancer. The components are top notch, I would keep them.After 43 days on the road, Pablove Across America finished the ride. Credit card action here, swap there, hiding money from the wife etc.īy selling just the frame, you will broaden your chances of a sale to real cyclist. Most people I see on super nice rides technically cannot "afford" them.
It took my buddy a full year to unload a high end bike because everyone that could afford it, could also afford to "build" their own brand new.īut the real hardcore cyclist still wants the best stuff, so he/she builds it part by part as he/she can afford it. I do not know the current price range of the paradox, but bikes in a certain category take a long time to sell sometimes. If you sell a used bike complete for $3500.00 or so, the individual that can afford it will probably just buy new.
There is a point of affordability in bicycles. I would unload the frameset and do a parts swap. Seriously though, with the prices of groupsets etc. The 2008 is a completely different bike, and I hear that there is an 11 Speed system now.
