Yari forks fully serviced annually and lowers lubed every few months
There are a couple of marks in the upper half of the right stanction but they've been there for 4 years and there's no fade in the anodising around them.
Listed as for spares as the frame has twisted, it's not noticeable when riding only when you take the rear wheel out or change a bearing. Id happily ride it still but didn't want to list it as a fully working bike for this reason, also the main rocker bearing needs changing.

Buying a Bike From a Shop Versus Buying Online
I've never been able to test ride a bike at a bike shop. The only bikes I've ever test ridden have been at events by online retailers.

Raliegh Bomber Klunker Cruiser 1984 ish
$80 GBPPartly restored Raleigh bomber cruiser bike from the early 1980's. it has been stored inside the past 3 years and ridden to the pub a handful of times.
selling because I'm moving house and have no space for it.
It has a 3 speed Sturmey-Archer hub which i never got round to connecting up, i'm not sure of it's condition inside but it used to change gear on its own occasionaly. I'm sure someone with a technical mind, and a little patience could get it working easy enough.
Collectionn only please. Though i will be travelling between Leeds and North Wales often during the move so it may be possible to meet up somewhere in between.

Shimano disc brakes and 650B wheels are the highlights of this otherwise basic mountain bike, bought new and ridden for about 3 months everything works the same as it left the shop.
