For me a Red Flag without a good explanation. My bare frame purchases: Rockhopper MTB as fork rebuild was $200, Viscount death fork, and aluminum fork end (he gave me) was bent/cracked when he dropped the fork. My favorite was a Allez Pro that came from Specialized with an aluminum fork for some reason (weight?) and he showed me that he followed Mr. Internet's suggestions on how to remove the scratched up anodizing and surface of the fork looked like a raised relief map or three-dimensional representation of the local mountain ranges around Tucson.
