Other bike influencers copy me and get 10 to 30 percent ROI

https://youtube.com/shorts/R433cZ-D_j0

Let me tell you something the other channels will never admit.

They are copying me.

I see it every day. Same phrases. Same scripts. Same strategies.

But they do not have the full recipe.

They buy a bike for 200 dollars. They clean it. They sell it for 260 dollars.

They post a video celebrating their 30 percent return.

Thirty percent.

That is not a flex. That is embarrassing.

My minimum return on investment is 300 percent.

Not 30 percent. Three hundred percent.

Here is a recent deal.

Road bike. Paid 100 dollars. Sold for 500 dollars.

400 percent return on investment.

No repairs. No oil. No work. No debt. No leverage.

The seller tried to sell this bike for months. Could not do it.

I sold it in 17 days.

Here is exactly how it happened.

Bicycle Flipping vs Starting a “Tech Startup”
Bicycle Flipping System

The Seller Who Failed For Months

I found this seller on Facebook Marketplace.

His listing was 8 weeks old.

Eight weeks.

He listed the bike for 400 dollars. Then 350. Then 300. Then make an offer.

Nobody bought it.

Why?

Because his photos were terrible. His description was one sentence. He did not answer messages quickly. He could not schedule a pickup.

He was not a bad person. He just did not know how to sell a bike.

I sent him a message.


The Exact Message I Sent

Here is the message I sent.

Hey. I see you have been trying to sell this road bike for months. I flip bikes locally. I have 100 cash right now. I can come to you today. Save you the headache. Let me know.

The seller replied in 5 minutes.

Seller. Please come get this bike. I am so done with it.

Me. Send your address. I will be there in one hour.

Seller. Here is my address. Bring cash.

I drove to his house. He was waiting in his driveway. The bike was leaning against his garage.

He looked exhausted.

I handed him 100 dollars. He handed me the bike.

He said. Thank you. I have been trying to sell that thing for months. You are a lifesaver.

I loaded the bike into my truck and drove home.


The Inspection

I got the bike home and looked it over.

Here is what I found.

Brand. Solid road bike brand. Not top tier but respected.

Frame. Aluminum. Lightweight. No cracks. No dents. Some scratches but nothing major.

Components. Shimano. Mid range. Shifted smooth. Brakes worked.

Wheels. Aluminum. Straight. True. Tires had life left.

Condition. Dirty but solid. The bike had been sitting in a garage for months. Dust everywhere. Chain was dry. But no rust. No damage.

This bike was easily worth 500 dollars to the right buyer.

The seller failed because he did not know how to present it.

He had a 500 dollar bike. He presented it like a 100 dollar bike.

That is the difference between someone who guesses and someone who has a system.


The Cleaning

This bike did not need repairs. It needed attention.

I spent 30 minutes on it.

I washed the aluminum frame.
I cleaned the tires.
I degreased the chain.
I lubed the chain.
I cleaned the shifters and brakes.
I inflated the tires.
I wiped down every surface.

The bike looked brand new compared to when I bought it.

I took 15 photos in my driveway during golden hour. I made sure to get clear shots of the brand name, the Shimano components, and the clean frame.

I wrote a listing that actually sold the bike.


The Listing

Title. Road Bike Shimano Aluminum Frame Clean Ready To Ride. 500 Firm.

Price. 500 dollars firm.

Description.

Selling this road bike. Aluminum frame. Shimano components. Clean and ready to ride.

The bike shifts smooth. Brakes strong. Tires have plenty of life.

No cracks. No dents. No rust. Just minor scratches from normal use.

Why am I selling? I flip bikes. I bought this from a guy who tried to sell it for months but gave up. I cleaned it up and now it needs a new home.

This bike is perfect for someone getting into road cycling or looking for a reliable backup bike.

Price is 500 dollars firm. Cash only. Pick up in my city. First come first served.

Serious buyers only. Send me a message if you want to see it.


The Wait

I posted the listing on Facebook Marketplace.

The first week was quiet.

I got some messages. Will you take 350? No. Will you take 400? No. Will you take 450? No.

I did not negotiate.

Here is why.

When you have a 500 dollar bike priced at 500 dollars, the right buyer will come. You just have to wait.

On day 14, a serious buyer messaged me.

Buyer. Is the road bike still available? I have been looking for this model for a while.

Me. Yes. 500 cash. When can you see it?

Buyer. I am out of town until Sunday. Can I see it Sunday at 2 PM?

Me. Yes. Message me Sunday morning to confirm.

Sunday came. He messaged me at 10 AM. Buyer. Still good for 2 PM?

Me. Yes. See you then.

He showed up at 2 PM sharp.


The Sale

The buyer was a guy in his thirties. He knew road bikes. He had owned a few over the years.

He inspected the bike for 5 minutes. He checked the frame. He spun the wheels. He tested the shifters.

He looked at me and said.

This bike is clean. You did a good job on it.

I said. Thank you. I bought it from a guy who gave up on it.

He handed me 500 dollars cash.

I handed him the bike.

He loaded it into his car and drove away.

Total time from purchase to sale? 17 days.


The Math

Purchase price. 100 dollars.

Sale price. 500 dollars.

Profit. 400 dollars.

Time held. 17 days.

Return on investment. 400 percent.

Let me say that again.

400 percent return in 17 days.

No repairs. No oil. No work. No debt. No leverage.

Just a clean bike and a good listing.


Compare That To The Copycats

Other bike channels and influencers are out there right now.

They watch my videos. They read my blogs. They copy my scripts.

Then they go find a bike. They pay 200 dollars for it. They clean it. They sell it for 260 dollars.

They make a video celebrating their 30 percent return.

Thirty percent.

And their viewers think that is good.

Let me be clear.

Thirty percent is not good. It is not bad. It is average. It is what anyone can do without a system.

My minimum return on investment is 300 percent.

Not 30 percent. Three hundred percent.

On this deal, I made 400 percent.

That is 13 times higher than their best day.

Why?

Because they have pieces of the puzzle. They have parts of the system. They have some of the scripts.

But they do not have the full recipe.

They do not know how to find the right sellers.
They do not know how to inspect for hidden value.
They do not know how to price for speed vs price for profit.
They do not know how to write listings that attract serious buyers.
They do not know how to negotiate without losing deals.

They are guessing.

I am not guessing. I have a system.

I am the original OG. I have been doing this since before they knew what a carbon frame was.

This is my recipe.

They can copy my words. They cannot copy my experience.


Compare That To Other Side Hustles

Let me put this 400 percent return in perspective.

Uber.

You drive your car for 17 days. You put 500 dollars of gas in your tank. You add 1,500 miles to your odometer. You make 800 dollars before expenses. After expenses, you make 300 dollars. And your car is worth less than when you started.

DoorDash.

Same thing. You destroy your car. You deal with rude customers. You wait 20 minutes for orders that pay 7 dollars.

Dropshipping.

You spend 500 dollars on ads. You get 15 sales. You make 150 dollars profit. Then 3 customers email you asking where their orders are. Then one files a chargeback. Then you lose money.

Crypto.

You buy 100 dollars of Bitcoin. You watch it go to 120 dollars. You get excited. You buy more. It drops to 80 dollars. You panic. You sell. You lost money. Or you hold and pray. That is not a business. That is gambling.

Bike Flipping.

You find a frustrated seller. You pay 100 dollars cash. You clean the bike for 30 minutes. You take photos. You write a listing. You wait 17 days. You sell it for 500 dollars. You make 400 dollars profit.

No car damage. No rude customers. No chargebacks. No gambling.

Just a system that works.


The System Copy And Paste

You want to find your own 400 percent ROI deal? Here is the system.

Step 1. Hunt Old Listings

Do not look at listings posted today or yesterday.

Look for listings that are 3 weeks old. 6 weeks old. 8 weeks old.

These sellers are tired. They are frustrated. They are ready to say yes to almost anything.

Step 2. Look For Price Drops

Sellers who lower their price multiple times are desperate.

Started at 400.
Then 350.
Then 300.
Then make an offer.

That is a seller who will take 100 dollars cash just to be done.

Step 3. Look For Good Brands That Hold Value

Trek.
Giant.
Specialized.
Cannondale.
Felt.
Cervélo.
BMC.
Pinarello.
Orbea.
Scott.

These bikes sell for 400 to 1,500 dollars used depending on age and condition.

Step 4. Send The Frustrated Seller Script

Hey. I see you have been trying to sell this bike for months. I flip bikes locally. I have 100 cash right now. I can come to you today. Save you the headache. Let me know.

Step 5. Clean And List Same Day

Do not wait. Clean it immediately. Take photos immediately. List it immediately.

A clean bike sells faster than a dirty bike every time.

Step 6. Price At Fair Market Value

Do not price above market. Do not price below market.

Look up sold listings for the same model. Price in the middle to upper range.

A 500 dollar bike priced at 500 dollars sells in days or weeks.
A 500 dollar bike priced at 600 dollars sells in months or never.

Step 7. Be Patient

Not every bike sells in 5 days. Some take 10 days. Some take 17 days. Some take 30 days.

That is fine. You only have 100 dollars in the deal. You can wait.

Do not take lowball offers out of impatience. Wait for the right buyer.


The Real Estate Connection

Here is what most people miss.

Real estate has the exact same dynamic.

A homeowner lists their house for 300,000 dollars. No offers for 2 months. They lower to 280,000. No offers. They lower to 260,000. A few showings but no offers.

They are tired. They are frustrated. They want out.

You come in with a cash offer of 240,000 dollars. You close in 14 days. They say yes because they are done.

That is wholesaling. That is a fix and flip. That is owner financing.

The skills are the same.

Finding frustrated sellers.
Making cash offers.
Solving their problem.
Moving fast.
Making profit.

You cannot learn house flipping with a 200,000 dollar mistake.

You can learn bike flipping with a 100 dollar mistake.

Make your mistakes on bikes. Build your system. Build your capital.

Then apply it to real estate.

That is exactly what I teach atTheNewFlip.com.

Final Word

Other bike influencers copy me.

They use my scripts. They use my strategies. They use my phrases.

But they do not have the full recipe.

They get 10 to 30 percent returns and call it a win.

My minimum is 300 percent.

On this deal, I made 400 percent.

A road bike. Paid 100 dollars. Sold for 500 dollars.

No repairs. No oil. No work. No debt. No leverage.

The seller tried for months. Could not do it.

I sold it in 17 days.

Because I have a system. Not guesses. Not luck. Not hoping.

A copy and paste system that works every time.

I am the original OG. This is the recipe.
