GEOMETRY (measured by hand, approximate). Head Tube Length: 140 mm. We have visually inspected this bicycle with the goal of identifying and describing all issues of significant concern with regard to the need for repair or replacement. This inspection is focused mainly on the structural integrity of the frame and fork, with less effort devoted to inspection of the components (cockpit, drivetrain, wheels). Please note that while we strive to identify all issues that might be of interest and concern to potential buyers, we might miss something that is either difficult to see or requires disassembly of the frame or components to successfully detect.

Damage that exceeds the following common conditions is noted below: light scratches and small dings, including small paint chips; minor damage to finish due to cable, heel, and chain rub; and what might be typical for a bike of this type and/or age e. Crank arm damage from curb or rock strikes, etc. Frame has damage to carbon at several areas - non-drive side of seat tube (paint and carbon loss due to impact), seat tube just below seat post collar (cracks in paint and possibly carbon as well), non-drive side chainstay (deep scratches and possibly some carbon loss), outside face of both rear dropouts (clear coat failure and small amount of carbon loss due to wheel exchanges), both fork dropouts (lawyer tabs filed off).

See photos for all listed damage. All areas of carbon damage should be repaired by a reputable business that specializes in the repair of carbon fiber bicycles, and until doing so, this bicycle should not be considered safe to ride.

Other than areas of carbon damage noted above, frame/fork in good condition. Seatpost is cracked along trailing edge.

Please see comments above re: repairing carbon damage. Otherwise cockpit in fair condition. Front derailleur pivot bolt appears to be backing out.

Rear derailleur missing pulley wheels. Otherwise drivetrain in poor to fair condition. Freehub body likely needs replacement. Otherwise wheels in good condition. With regard to the current state of tune and continued serviceability of the components (cockpit, drivetrain, wheels), potential buyers should assume the following.

We have not checked the torque values of bolts and other fasteners on this bicycle, and it's certainly possible that some, or even all, of these fasteners are not tightened to the manufacturers' recommended torque specifications, and, in fact, might actually be loose e. Loose enough to cause a component or small part to move unexpectedly or fall off, or otherwise cause a safety hazard and risk of personal injury or death. We have not checked the condition or adjustment of bearings (headset, derailleur pulley, bottom bracket, hub, freehub), and some or all might need to be adjusted or replaced. We have not checked the operation of drivetrain control components (shifters, brakes, derailleurs), and some or all might need to be adjusted. In the case of bikes with hydraulic brakes, the front and/or rear brake systems might need to be bled. We have not evaluated the condition and remaining service life of drivetrain wear components (chainrings, cassette, chain, brake pads, disc brake rotors, cables/housing), and some or all might need to be replaced. We have not checked the alignment of the disc brake rotors, and one or both might need to be trued.

We have not checked the alignment of the wheels, and one or both might need to be trued and/or dished. We have not evaluated the condition of the tires or tubes, and some or all might need to be replaced.

In the case of bikes with tubular tires, we have not evaluated the age or condition of the tubular glue, and it's prudent to assume that the tires need to be re-glued in order achieve a safe and reliable adhesion between tires and rims.
