- The secret to mountain biking is pretty simple. The slower you go the more likely it is you’ll crash.
- No one gets hurt in the air
- There is no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing.

I may be able to make it give me a call tomorrow around 12:00 and if I can meet you I will. I would go a long with what Lee has said in that the frame is the most critical part so you need to check this very closely in particular the pivot areas, then the front and rear shox's have they been serviced, when and were? how do they feel? then just a case of checking over the other bits like the wheels are they true.

Hope that helps

Justin, cant make tomorrow.

You need to make sure the main parts are sound. You can change any of the small parts as these are cheap. The frame needs to not be to hammerd, the wheels and shox's need to be in good condition as well as the rear shox.

Apart for that then you and I expect will want to change some of the other parts. Also on a bike like that most of the kit should be and I expect is more robust, so should with stand more hammering for longer.

Let us know who you get on.

I'm looking at buying the BH III advertised on Ebay tomorrow. He will accept cash offers
I'm going to look at it tomorrow about 12.30pm. Lee/ Nathan do you fancy coming to look at it with me in shirehampton?
I'm not sure what to look for really apart from scratches.
Just :huh:
