Its for my girlfriend to potter about on for a sunday afternoon ride.

Looking at the ad on ebay the bike is mint, just wondering what people thought of the spec for the price, i think its a good deal.

My first proper mountainbike was a Schwinn Moab 2 from 2001. I liked it a lot, and still have it as my second bike. The frame is very comfortable and it's easy to upgrade the components. I was quite surprised to find that it accepts pretty big tyres too.

The Moab 3 looks a bit better than my bike, so I say go for it if you can get it cheap.
