Sell or Trade in Bikes or Wheels in Garage

I don’t even want my drops back just a option to donate them (ie Delete the bikes)

If I want them back I will pay full price. :money_with_wings::dollar_banknote::money_with_wings::dollar_banknote::money_bag:

+1 I’d like to get rid of all the non usable bikes. Preferably by getting drops back

If Zwift insist on bringing out the latest greatest frame and then 2 months after buying decide to nerf them, then they need to add the ability to delete, hide or even sell them.

Also a way to organise you garage to show a limited amount of setups.

I would not need reselling. What should I do with the drops other than filling my garage? But we realy need some kind of possiblity to sort, prioritize or move in a back-garage.

+1 for an ability to Archive.
Stuff that I’m not going to wear/use can be put there as a just in case, whilst tidying up the main selection screens.

Just give us 5 presets 1 to 5, don’t name them for anything specific.
Let each user decide what they are for.
I could do with 3 but I guess 5 would be appreciated by many.

Agreed, would happily support a button that allows you to “Sell/delete” from garage for 50% of the drops credited to my account.

it took me 7500km to get to 35 (230000 xp) where the 808/Super 9s are available. it will require another 5500km to reach lv 42 (340000 xp). I figure it will be a while longer to get the DT Swiss and the ZIPPs would not be a wasted investment.

So, I’m sure if they enabled selling you wouldn’t be able to get close all your drops back (I mean who pays full price for a used bike), so.. I’d still be leery of selling anything for the off chance Zwift un-nerfed something later (TOA gets nerfed->you sell->people complain->Zwift changes it back). So my preference would be they enable an easy way to choose between your 3-5ish favorite bike/wheel combinations (eg. Aero, Generalist, Climber, TT, Gravel, MTB/Other), and then the rest you can dig into if you really wanted to. This way people who are collectors can still get them all without making the day-to-day bike selection any more difficult for them too.

Speaking for myself, I don’t care about getting the drops back. I just want my garage to not look like my IRL garage, i.e. the better part of a Continental Race Team’s shop space…

This behavior of zwift is unbearable. They create frames that are tested by Zwift insiders. If it turns out that these are top and people put them in their garage with heavily earned drops, the frames will be destroyed in the next update. Apparently this is already becoming a habit. A company of this size should be ashamed of such a botch.

I do not think selling is needed. Yes, it’s nice to be able to get drops back, but most people are already happy with an option to just delete frames/ wheels. Me too.

However, perhaps there is a better option? Instead of having your ‘garage’ only, you have a ‘shed’ or something. Where you can move frames / wheels back and forth from which you do not want in your garage.

This would change the dynamics of bike swaps too as a side effect, but is that a bad thing? I don’t really think so.

An added benefit is that it doesn’t punish people for collecting many frames or wheels, but also rewards them. People simply love collecting stuff!

Just look at achievements. If Zwift creates an achievement like ‘Ride the Uber Pretzel 20 times in a week’ with a 1xp reward, some people will still hunt that achievement down.

With something like a shed (or a better name) where you can store your unused frames and wheels, it gives people an incentive to collect more items, instead of punishing them for it as the situation is now.

I believe what you’re looking for is a ‘Team Car’. And, really, they should change the name of ‘Garage’ to ‘Service Course’. There’s no way my garage could hold all the stuff I’ve accumulated in Zwift! :rofl:

Yes, the “Team Car” concept is perfect!

Well, I mean hopefully you would get a badge along with the 1xp right?!

It‘s a (sporty) game. Should be possible to organize your garage like an avatar/ items in other games. Please!
