Hey all this be my first post so how yall doing?Ive been riding a hard tail for a year or so now and love the single track, a buddy of mine wants to sell a full suspension bike.I can get this bike for £175 but cant find a single review anywhere,he tells me it cost £1300 new so sounds like a good deal.have any of you guys ever heard of this brand? any info would be greatly appreciated.iIt is a ,wheeler czx5000, i think it has a marzocchi bomber fork so this is a good start right?
It is from 1998. Avoid.
Thanks for your comments stuart,i have yet to ride a full suspension bike, so would not know a good from bad,if the bike is in near new condition does the age really matter?and if so why?Thanks again for your time i would really hate to miss a bargain if this was a classic.
It is old, heavy, has poor geometry, you won't be able to get parts for the frame or for the shock and everything will be worn out or seized or rusty. The suspension will be a joke by modern standards and you will have much more fun on your hardtail.
Keep saving and get something much more modern.
NB i've never seen one of these, i just googled it.
