2023 Trek Slash 9.8 Gen 5

$2,700✨ 16% under market

−$500 vs. fair-price low

Fair-price range: $3,200–$4,500

Near-mint 2023 Trek Slash 9.8 Gen 5 carbon enduro rig with SRAM X01 and Fox 38, priced far below market.

Why we flagged this

Watch out

The price is exceptionally low for the condition; verify the seller's identity and use a secure payment method. Inspect for any undisclosed frame issues despite the 'like new' claim.

2026 Yeti MTE Frame Bundle

A lightly ridden 2026 Yeti MTE frame bundle with motor, battery, and Fox Float Factory X2 shock listed for $1,700.

Why it's a deal: This 2026 Yeti MTE bundle, which includes the frame, motor, battery, and a 2026 Fox Float Factory X2 rear shock, is listed at $1,700. Given the bike has only covered circa 300 miles and features current-year high-end components, this price is substantially lower than recent sold comparables for Yeti e-bike frame setups.

Watch out: The asking price is exceptionally low for the specified hardware; buyers should be extremely vigilant, verify the seller's identity via a live video call of the items, and use a secure payment method to ensure this is not a scam.

2023 Santa Cruz Nomad CC LG / Fox Factory / XTR

Full refresh: “Full linkage bearing service … Fork service with new seals … New tires … Rear derailleur replaced” and built with Reserve carbon wheels, Fox Factory suspension, Shimano XTR drivetrain.

Why it's a deal: CC carbon Nomad with factory-level kit and recent full-service refresh, normally commands well north of this price on the used market. The seller explicitly lists a full bearing service, fork seals, new brakes/rotors, and tires — meaning a buyer avoids immediate maintenance costs.

Watch out: Confirm frame serial and check photos for any structural damage; verify the scope and receipts for the listed services. Buyer should confirm exact model years of the fork/shock and whether Chris King headset/hubs were serviced.

2025 Santa Cruz Hightower CC X0 AXS RSV

Pristine 2025 Santa Cruz Hightower CC with X0 AXS and Reserve wheels listed at a shocking value.

Why it's a deal: Listed at $2,800, this current-year 2025 Santa Cruz Hightower CC build with X0 AXS and Reserve wheels is priced shockingly below typical market values for a new CC-tier build, representing massive potential value if authenticity is verified.

Watch out: Verify seller identity and use secure payment methods; the price is extremely low for a 2025 CC build, which increases the risk of a scam or listing error.

Lightly ridden 2024 Santa Cruz Hightower CC V3 with Fox 38 Kashima and Chris King hubs for $3,600.

Why it's a deal: The listed price of $3,600 is far below expected used-market values for a factory carbon Hightower equipped with premium components like a Fox 38 Kashima fork and Chris King hubs.
