Where's the best place to sell a road bike?

Due to on going problems with my back and now shoulder I'm looking to sell my 2013 Canyon Roadlite AL F6 Road Bike. I've done less than 20 miles since new and it's spent it's whole life in our bedroom!

I don't want to get rid of it but my wife as pointed out I'll have to sell it at some point and the longer I leave it the less it's worth. Still love cycling but will have to make do with Eurosport coverage for the time being!

I really have no Idea what it's worth, never seen one on ebay so no guide. It cost me about £900 delivered from Germany and it's still in new condition. I'd like to get back £600 for it but with ebay fees etc. I'd only be left with £510

Does anyone know the best place to sell road bikes maybe a MM for bikes?

Cheers

If it's done that little you could maybe push for a bit more.

That's interesting, the few miles I did do were on a couple of dry sunny days, it literally looks new

Not that I'm trying to tempt you Roady! It's Canyon Size S (54cms) I'm 5ft 8", Groupset = 105, it's mostly black with yellow stripes and white Canyon branding. Nice looking bike

With regards to ebay I'd literally have to sell it on a "Buy it Now" for £695 to achieve £600 which I don't think will happen

I do still have the shipping box for it so could post but the would be around £20 - £30. Just don't think I could lose more than £300 on £900 that's had about an hours use

Pink Bike has a for sale section, that might be worth a look. I have no idea about how good it is to sell on though.

Cheers, I'll take a look
