Super V4000 Raven

[Tim Daker]

I have to let one of my cannondales go, I can’t justify having two when I am so short of space now.
I have decided to keep and restore my Killer V900 and sell my Raven.
My problem is that I have no idea how much to ask for it. It is a first gen 4000. It has the correct Coda Magic crankset and Alp shock.it now has a Rolf Dolomite wheelset. Anybody got any idea of value. (I’m in the UK) the only Super Vs that I’ve seen on eBay vary so widely in asking price that it’s not much help!
Cheers
Tim

My two cents?

Not worth a whole lot, particularly as a whole bike.

If you're trying to make it go away? Likely not more than $5 to 600.

Want to make the most possible? Part it out. The cranks alone, will get a couple hundred if in nice shape, and with the bottom bracket.

First gen Ravens were pretty fragile, so whoever buys it, won't be able to really ride it much, at least not without being nervous. So it's wall art, really.

Sadly, the vintage market is pretty flat nowadays...

I agree. The raven is very cool. Prices can change. depending on size, condition. And also I agree with Mendon. Vintage bikes are kinda flat line right now. Where I live in California. They are dead. Nobody wants them.
