fbmbmx Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Well as I logged back into the forum today for the first time in 5years I said I may get a new bike. This has come up http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/1260248/ What do you all think? He will take £375 and deliver it to my house. I'm just about to commit to buying it unless someone has a horror story about on cracking or breaking. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fbmbmx Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 One last thing is the freewheel on the hub on the cranks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane666r Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 One last thing is the freewheel on the hub on the cranks? Cranks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Sold complete they were like £800? but they weren't that spec I don't think. Freewheel is on the cranks, which is sort of the norm these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris H Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 A local got one of these a month ago, full bike £50, I'm not saying this is worth that. Looks a great bike and amazing nick for its age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbmbmx Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Sweet. Do you all think it's worth the money then? Don't think there is something better for the money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 For that bike delivered personally I'd say it is worth it yes, there's a couple of bits I'd change but then that would be the case with any bike generally speaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbmbmx Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 good good. What would you change out of intrest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I'd lose the bash plate and get a ring, not sure what those frames are like though for cracking on bash mounts, and I'd swap the bars and probably stem for something a bit higher. Forks would be something else I'd want to swap but not desperately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fbmbmx Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I see. I don't intend to use the bash plate much and yeah was thinking maybe a new stem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockman Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 First thing out of anything, change the chain. PLEASE! KMC Z610HX is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezmtber Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 The hope brakes would cost that new. The bikes well worth the money imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
