Would this be a good shout?

No, not really. Thats a dh bike and I can guarantee it will have more than the front lever and caliper wrong with it (which will cost £70+ to start with).

It's a bloody minefield.  First you ned to find a half decent bike, THEN you need to find one in good condition!  :sad:

Yeah I've been on there all day.  Spotted a few great bikes but they all sold instantly :(

No thats a jump bike. Very small!
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
