wozz Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Onza bird 2009 20" could that be a alright place to start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 Where you start is up to you really, if the bike fits your budget (As long as it's not robbery) then it's worth going for it. Check out all the usual places to compare prices and to see what you can get for your money, you've got the Classifieds here, PinkBike and eBay. You could probably get a bargain from someone who's quitting or looking for a quick sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wozz Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 thanks for the reply I've found an onza that looks pretty good second hand. Anything major to check when buying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 The spec is the big thing, obviously without knowing how much it is it's hard to know whether it's good or bad. Major things on the bike is no cracks, no dents, wheels still true with no dents in the rim etc. Just in good condition basically. I've been out of the scene a long time so I can't tell you how much stuff should be going for really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
