Im new to bikes (just usef it without thinking). I currently have an old heavy MTB from my grandfather and want something faster. But my Budget ist pretty tight. I found this one my local Marketplace and wanted some feedback.
I am 171cm tall and the Bike has a frame of 54.
I have a test ride tomorrow and will try it.
The seller wants 350€ for it and i think this seems pretty high. If there ist anything to Look Out plus let me know.
Any Feedback is appritiated. Thanks in advance.

So everyone has a different value on used bikes. Where I am for example they always sell on the high side..
The good thing about this bike is it appears to be very clean and pretty well maintained. Solid Shimano wheel set, solid 105 (10 speed?) group set.
The downside is age. It’s an older group set and an older wheel set. Doesn’t mean they don’t have value or still work well. One of my favorite bikes has a 20 year old group set that still works as well as the day I bought it.
If it fits well I would think that 200-250 would be fair, beyond that I would keep looking.
In all honesty it’s not terrible but you can do better. I struck absolute gold I found a limited edition cervelo r5 with dura ace 9100 and carbon wheels with a power meter. I’m not saying you will find something like that but you can sure find a great bike
