Reason for selling - The height of the cycle is too much and cannot be used by any of us. Hence it hasn't been used even once. 
The expected price is 1,00,000/-

You bought a road bike without checking the height (frame size), that too priced a lakh plus.....

very truly,
anil s kadsur,

Though I am not buying this bike. I am curious to know/ How did this happen ?  This could be a good learning for new folks in here who are planning to buy a bike.

 

Thx,
Dev

An idea to buy a surprise gift without knowing what size to buy, perhaps? Bicycles make great gifts, but not great surprise gifts.  Correct size is a tricky question and also the actual make/model; nothing can be worse than gifting a high-end bike, only to have the recipient wish they'd been given a different model or make!  If you want to ask Santa for a bike, don't just say 'shiny new bike' but mention make, model, and size! :)

Monika,
why dont you contact decathlon and ask for right size, I am sure they will help you with this since you havent used it even once.

Hello all,

Actually the bike was brought for someone who apparently moved to US. I talked to Decathlon guys and it seems there is nothing they can do to get it resold.

Thanks anyways for your suggestions.

U can get the size exchanged!
I am sure Decathlon would oblige!!
 
I know it would be difficult to sell or you need to sell in parts

I had bought BTwin Triban 3 and found out that the size was wrong for me. After about a month and half out of curiosity I just called up the branch to explain my situation. To my surprise they told me they could exchange it for the correct size but from new stock. And they exchanged the bike, but I had to pay the difference amount as the new stock price was a little higher. However I had not used the bike much except maybe two rides and I had the original bill.

It is worth talking to a proper person. Even the CEO is reachable through email.

Regards,
Vivek
