Hey guys! I’m slated to pick this up tomorrow for $620. He was asking $800 originally and lowered it to $750 before I made the offer. He says it’s been used maybe ten times. it’s been sitting in his basement for about a year. Looks like it includes the little mud fender in front, and the listing states it’ll include the phone holder (which will go on my gf’s Cannondale adventure) and some sort of car mount, but i don’t know what brand or anything. Solid deal? It seems like it to me, and I can’t wait!

It’s a good enough deal all things considered for “entry level” 2021 or 2022 full squish. It can handle actual trails, but the recon silver RL isn’t the best fork out there. None of the components are bad, and can handle fun trails, but for more moderate or advanced riders this bike may hold them back a bit.
On a sub $700 budget, doubt you’ll find much better unless you go for a bit older bikes. Those would need servicing often, and if the guy only rode this 10 times, which is very plausible, this would only need minor tune that you can do yourself. I wouldn’t call it the deal of a lifetime, but it’s probably quite a good deal if almost new.
Edit: Found the actual specs.

Suntour XCR32 air 120mm, deore m5120 10s, bt-m201 brakes. It’s decent. Brand new it was a $1400 bike. $600 is a fair deal, just depends on what kinds of trails OP rides.
Seems like a fair price.
