I paid $40 for the bike, and spent $18 on 2 new tires, $2 total on new brake pads for front and back (they are sunlite brake pads that sell for $15 a pair in the local bike shops here) and $2.50 on 2 new brake cables for a total of about $63 into the bike. That's the only reason why I got $150. I probably could have gotten $175-200 on CL but it was bought by a local person that will bring me more buyers in the future so I lowered the price. That's the only good thing about new York, you can buy for cheap and sell for high
