I'm looking at a bike, but its 3 hours away from me in Rugby.

Would anyone near fancy going for a look at it, just to confirm condition etc? If so, let me know

I'm after someone, who can go and speak to the guy, get an unbiased opinion of it. Cosmetically really. He says that its mint. Its got FSH, only on 4k so the chain/sprocks should be in excellent condition etc. I think its a fairly honest assessment but before I go throwing down a deposit/HPI check etc, I'd like someone to have a muse over it. He's sent me a couple of decent photos, but you can only see so much from a photograph. Its a private sale, but I can let him know that someone is coming for a look.

Private sale, or from Nightingales?

Pete is willing to take a look for you, although he's not a Triple expert. Can certainly give it a visual check though.

Maybe both Pete and Barwel could go. Pete could pick him up. Two sets of eyes better than one maybe?
