A bit of a novice question really as I don't know that much about bikes, but basically I'm looking to sell my bike (as I've now inherited a better one).

It's a Giant Escape hybrid with Nexus inter-8 hub and hub brakes. Not sure of the model year but it's around 07-09. Was given it but had it power coated (grey) so no original markings. Not really been used much but it's in good working order (rolls smoothly, brakes and gears work correctly etc...).

Anyway I'm going to advertise it for sale (gumtree etc...) but don't know what price to stick on it. Anyone have an idea?

Thank. This is now what I've done. Started a 99p but put an £80 reserve on it as I wouldn't like to see it go for less than that. Perhaps there wasn't much point as within 45 mins of listing it, it got it's first bid for £80!
