    Nothing wrong with the bike but I Think its overpriced for what is,
    very optimistic seller...
    for not much more money you would get a decent New bike with better spec or a brilliant second hand bargain......
    if you can, try to talk with someone you know that does some cycling, would be able to give you some advice........

    I have the boardman team. Its just the step-up from this one. No problems with the bike barring regular lubrication of the casing. She's nice and light for me. Easy smooth gear changing and undamaged after hit a fellow cyclist after he managed to lock up his brakes excessively pressing on bars.

    I think that's over priced though. If you can get a better deal it would be worth it. Bear in mind seller prob paid little more via btw scheme.

    I am sure anyone trying to sell their stuff on adverts or indeed our own sub-forum would not appreciate someone coming on here to get the knowledge and experience of the whole Cycling froum to support them in their negotiations. Do your own research - check other ads, do a search of our own sub-forum, and make up your own mind as to whether it's worth it
