Bikes can reasonably get to 1.5k at least without things getting too absurdly overpriced. If there's a trade in it would at least be for bikes in that range.
$1.5k is still not a very expensive bike. Only at the low end of "non trash components".
True, but I don't want to scare the carbrains. :P
Honestly though yes. My pretty basic road bike was 1600 and that was one of the lower prices in the shop. I think they averaged at around 5-8k in that shop at least.
