* Merged or smaller sample, treat as approximate. Asking prices as of July 2026; sold prices typically run a little lower. Full method on the UK bike depreciation report and the valuation methodology.
Suspension is the first thing a buyer checks. On a full-suspension bike the rear shock and pivot bearings need periodic servicing, and a neglected shock is an expensive fix, so a recent service record supports a price at the top of the range. Hardtails are simpler and cheaper to keep, which makes their value easier to hold.
Wheel and axle standards move on, and older bikes track the market down with them. 29-inch wheels and boost spacing are the current defaults on trail and cross-country bikes, so an older 26-inch bike, or a dated axle standard, sits lower because parts and upgrades are harder to find.
Carbon frames command more than alloy when they are clean and undamaged, but used carbon carries a crash-damage risk that buyers price in. A frame with a clear history, no cracks around the head tube and welds, and honest photos earns the upper end; an unknown history widens the range downward.
