Full service last year, new cables, complete degrease of drive chain components.
The bike is 15 years old, hence the retro-ness. When serviced the Bike shop commented on its excellent condition for its age. That said the frame does need a bloody good polish to look half decent. There are two aftermarket stickers I put on the cross bar years ago, one has half peeled off. One of the OEM stickers on the seat stay has half worn away. There are no dents on the frame whatsoever and it has never been crashed!
Bike rides well. It may need adjustment or something on the rear gears as they jump about a little every so often. Also the front mech shifter occasionally doesn’t shift for a few presses, then works fine for ages. Just tried it now and its fine. The chain looks a tab rusty. This may lube up or need replacing.
There is some paint missing on the front shock mainly where the QR leave attaches. The shock mechanism works really well and the adjusters (for rebound?) are just fine too.
Collection only and I am open to viewings/test rides.
If you have any questions or require specific photos please drop me a message.
