I get annoyed by people saying stuff like "You should never buy used brake components because they may not be safe" (the audience can affect a whiney whingey Casey Stoner type voice if required) Well Mr Clever-Tw4t, what do you think your recently bought 5 year old used bike has if it's not used brake components. I don't think the previous owner fitted brand new calipers just to sell it to you. |

Nah mate it's more of an adenoidal rover-restoring type voice than a stoner one.

Buying second hand stuff shouldn't necessarily raise alarm bells.....unless whatever it is you're buying has clearly NOT been looked after, in which case, you probably wouldn't buy it!!
I was meaning, has it been garaged? Ridden over winter in the salt? Pressure washed when cleaned? Blah blah blah. And I meant the whole bike, not bits of it. Last edited by Speedy; 12-06-10 at 09:58 PM. |
