Selling a tool set in Ludhiana
Ludhiana is India’s hosiery capital and a major manufacturing centre for bicycles and machine parts. That industrial base is unusually visible in the second-hand market: bicycles, tools and workshop equipment all have knowledgeable local buyers. It is also one of the things that moves most reliably here, so there is a local audience for it already.
Industrial and residential areas are quite separate and the city is easy enough to drive, so collection is straightforward once you know which you are heading for. Winter here is genuinely cold by Indian standards.
On a used bicycle, check the frame and bottom bracket rather than the paint. The local knowledge here is genuine and a seller who knows bikes will answer specifically.
Ludhiana, in Punjab, has around 1.6 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Amritsar, Jalandhar and Patiala are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Ludhiana
