Nothing wrong with this bike!
Worth the ask for the wheel set and the seat bag alone. Would probably sell for more in a bigger place.
Posting as I loved the copy.

When I bought my T400, it had RSX on it with 7 speed in the back for a whopping $1,100 CDN. All that for Suntour Blaze? He's full of himself mate.

INTERNET FLIPPER ADVICE: take a photo of the bike apart so your customers will know it's been reconditioned!
SELLER: *uses schlock horror red grease and torture basement lighting with bonus shot of filthy rag in their leading photo*

I and others have flagged this guy, but to no avail. He keeps going. He also has the annoying habit of posting an additional ad when one of his bikes sells.
