I mean, I got used carbon full suspension mountain bike for $500 used a few months ago, there are plenty of decent hardtail bikes lightly used for $400-500 in my area.
Nice!
My area seems to be $1k+ for lightly used HT, and a decent full squish is like $2k. I'm in an area where MTB is super popular (Utah), so there are a lot of enthusiasts that know what bikes are worth. It's especially bad for me since I'm tall and need a less standard size.
I have seen a few good deals here and there though. I got my kid a decent Trek with front suspension for $250-ish, and I'm going to shop around for some upgrades (kids keep growing). But $500 is what I expect to spend for a decent bike, anything less for a decent bike is a steal.
