Dirt Disciple
Purchased as a new bike back in 2000'ish, I think from Wiggle or Chain Reaction.
It shows surface corrosion to the top coating, weathering, surface defects, and some rust of exposed metal parts. It's never seen 'heavy' use, mostly ridden on soft trails, roads etc. Not sure if this surface pitting is just the lacquer, or also pitting of the polished aluminium frame.
The photos tend to make the frame look in better condition than it is, but I have tried to take close-up photos of the larger areas affected. However, most of this is surface pitting, and there are no obvious dents.
The frame/serial number very clearly visible, and can supply photo of this on request.
If there's any interest for this, then I can upload additional images, and take new photos of particular areas on request. Can also provide specific measurements on request. I'm 5' 11", so assume this is around the 19" size frame? From top of seat tube, down to middle of bottom bracket, measures 19".
Components
Original Orange Seat and Orange Black Seatpost.
XT Rear Mech, XT Rear Hub & XT Skewer, XT Hollowtech Chainset, XT Front & Rear Brakes
XTR Front Hub & XTR Skewer
Raceface Handlebar (surface corrosion)
Cane Creek Headset
LX Brake / Gear Shifts, LX Front Mech
RockShox Recon Suspension
WorldForce Stem
Titec Bar Ends (badly scuffed)
Cane Creek Grips
Mavic Wheels
Gusset Pedals
It's in working order; had a service a few years ago, and hasn't been used really since then, just stuck in garage.
Price: £95.

I'd rather this is viewed & picked-up, rather than having to package and post. However, I'm open to the buyer arranging a courier for pick-up.
