i'm sure the advice will be |don't but a bike you haven't ridden but...

i'm pretty broke

this looks like it could be a pretty good deal

it has a small frame and i am v short so it will suit me.

it's the kind of hybrid bike i am after.

specialized seem like good quality bikes?

was thinking of bidding £75-80 quid and see if i get it.

help me make up my mind. if you think definitely not then i'll take that advice too.

cheers.

eh just this

"PLEASE ALSO BE AWARE THAT I DO NOT GET THE TIME TO CLEAN EVERY BIKE I SELL, SO I TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT WITH MY PRICES"

is enough to put me off. also i ain't no expert at prices but this bike looks to be around 15 years old and it doesn't seem like a great deal to me. Also "Brake Type: V Type" - i could be wrong but they look more like ultra old school direct pull brakes to me.

cheers ledge, it's probably a bad idea. i think i'd be better off waiting for a cheapo to come up on gumtree local and at least i can try before i buy.
