The bike is in very good condition apart from the usual scrapes and rubs you get from downhill mountain biking, and everything seems to be in working order as far as I can tell. The gearing which would benefit from a service or some adjustment as the gear changes are not as smooth as they should be, but otherwise the shifters and derailleurs work fine.

Re:

Looks in very good condition so I think you should realistically expect around £300.

Wow!

I was thinking closer to £200. Thanks for that input Brocklanders. The gears aren’t running smoothly and need a bit of fettling something which I just don’t have the knack for. Do you think I should knock £50 off your suggested £300 to allow for that?
