[QUOTE="Beerzerker, post: 1674299, member: 18938"] On a used bike check for cracked welds, bent cranks or bottom bracket (the lugs and bearings that the cranks attach to), and flat spots in the rims (where the rounded shape was slightly deformed by hitting things hard). Those are all clues telling you that the bike was abused and not worth the risk (especially cracked welds!!!). Its no problem usually, but you gotta be careful buying a used bike that was "ridden hard"... One last thing... [SIZE=5][B][U] You can be a good guy and get him a "COOL" helmet to go with the bike! Can be a real life saver.[/U][/B][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
