Tires are tubeless so they just need air. I’m not familiar with buying used bikes, if someone could look this bike over and see if there’s any visible issues before I buy I would be very appreciative. Thanks!

Tough to know by these pictures. I would:
– Ask the seller to inflate the tires and verify that they hold air
– Get better pictures of the chain and cassette, or ideally a video of the seller holding the back wheel up and shifting through the gears. If you see rust anywhere or hear lots of squeaking, there are parts that might need to be replaced and should be priced in
– Get a video of the seller squeezing the brake levers. They shouldn’t come in all the way and hit the bars – if they do, price in a ~$50 brake service.
You could also check all these things in person. But if those all seem good and the bike fits you I’d maybe offer 400 but it’s a good no-frills bike.
