2. Cables are tie-wrapped to the frame. Why? I know on my one bike where I had to do that, it's because the cable holder had corroded to the point it wouldn't hold the cable. Not a good sign.
3. No closeups of the rims. Again, why? If the wheels have problems, you'll probably have to spend over $100 for replacements. At least.
If you do go look at it, make sure you pull the seat post and look inside the frame. If the owner won't let you, don't buy it.
