It’s the Women’s Roscoe 8. Bicycle blue book lists it at $479 to $494 for private sale. Where and how was it ridden? Was it ever professionally serviced?
I’m half a centimetre shorter than you and I ride a Trek Large size. Though a medium shouldn’t be too small to be unusable.
That fork looks a little suspect though. Best case scenario is the seals are leaking and it’s just built up a little pile of dirt from the oil and dirt mixing. In that case it just needs rebuilding. Worst case scenario that fork stanchion is damaged and the entire fork needs to be replaced.
Not at all, don’t risk it – add 200…250 more and buy a new one as the market if flooded atm with great deals (how about cube?)
Nah, you need a large. I’m 178 and riding on M sucked. L is the way to go.
