Cash-for-clunkers but make it eco-friendly
I like the idea in theory, but I think it would be a hard sell of “hey trade in your $10k+ car for this few hundred dollar bike”
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.
“Hoo boy, a car? Those take a while to sell, but I know someone who can scrap it for parts, so I’ll do you a favour and take it off your hands… Ten bucks?”
Some pawn shops might take you up on this
