Condition:
The Good: Looks almost unridden. Brakes still have seams on face, protective cardboard barrel adjuster holders (for shipping) still on brakes. Hoods are bright white and supple. Saddle is not worn or torn. Teeth on cogs/pulleys/chainrings show little to no wear. No rust on cables. No breakwear to rim surface. Everything spins, rotates and turns smoothly. Brakes stop on a dime and shifts smoothly.
The Not So Good: Needs a new chain and tires. Chain has more stretch than I like, tire sidewalls are dry from storage. There is some light pitting on some of the chrome bits (also from storage) but can only be see very up close. Some rub to the rear inside derailleur plates. Several small paint chips that could be easily touched up if matching paint were found/mixed. Light scratching to pedals and plates from clipped shoe insertion. Some surface rust to underside of toe clips that can be polished out.
No Dents, Dings, bends, warps, etc. Frame is straight and rides like the day it was purchased.
