cannondale bike

[[email protected]]

hello,
this a question for the avid cannondale fan. i own about a 1999
cannondale volvo mountain bike (replica race bike?). it has everything
xtr, mavic rims, although it has v-brakes. it is in almost perfect
shape. does anyone know how much it is worth. i cannot find it on ebay
or find any pictures or reference to it on the net. maybe i can post
pics(not sure how in this site), or send them to someone to identify
model and year. thanks so much for your help. chris

When it rolls out the door, the price drops 20%. Then figure about 10% every
year after that. This assumes it is well maintained. Otherwise the price
drops much quicker.

Until it's 20 or so years old and still hasn't ended up in the city dump,
and then it might go up slightly again. Unless it's a very special model
that's also highly desireable. Most bikes, though, aren't collector's
items. Not even with XTR or Dura Ace or Record on them.
