Wow - what a bunch of enablers you folks are! In all seriousness, I really do appreciate all of your comments. I really did enjoy riding the Cheviot when I was in Walnut Creek a few weeks ago. I remember being surprised by how quick the bike felt. I have a Tubus rear rack and a "Mark's rack" that would be added to the Chev. With this setup I think it would be an ideal around town / bike path bike. I rode a green bike, but really like the orange color - with the cream headtube being a nice bonus.
I still regret not buying a Rambouillet ten years ago. Since this looks like the last run of Cheviots, it seems like I would be a fool to not pull the trigger. Any advice on selling a go-fastish bike? The only way that I can justify purchasing the Chev is by selling off the Bob Brown bike that I currently own. I assume that there would be little market on this list. Where else might I turn? Suggestions on setting a price? Is there a standard depreciation rate for bikes that I can/ should use to help me determine my price? What are the benefits / pitfalls of selling on ebay? Sorry to be so filled with questions. However, I'm entering unknown territory and this group is filled with knowledgeable folks.
