Hello everyone. Hopefully this is ok to post, apologies if not. I’m new, as in, I know how to ride a bike but don’t own one, and I’m trying to figure out how much, if any, of a good deal this bike purchase will be. Keep in mind I have easy access to good tails so I plan on not just learning but getting very good and much use out of it, thus why I’m not just going. For a basic ~$500 bike that I would want to upgrade after several months. TIA.
2021 Yeti sb115 C2 build
Paid $5,400 – receipt attached

Recently had both the Fork and Rear suspension serviced, a set of new Maxxis tires and Bottom Bracket replaced (see receipts).

I would not touch used carbon. I’m sure you will get different opinions. Good luck! Does look nice.
Looks like it was tended to. As far as used carbon goes that depends on who was riding it and how. Looks like a Covid bike to me so give a real good look at the frame. Remove any non factory stickers and look for hidden damage/cracks. Scratches in the paint aren’t abnormal but if it looks weird it probably is. Carbon can be repaired by a qualified technician (mine was annihilated by a baggage handler, professionally repaired and hasn’t let me down for 5 years and counting). Take the rear tire off and look at the inner portion of the rear triangle for paint rubbed off from too big a tire or abrasive mud. I bought one like that once. It’s junk now. That should be a plenty capable bike on most trails.
Did you put the price anywhere?
Asking price is 2,200. Missed that on my post.
That seems like a good deal to me. Just make sure there are no cracks/soft spots on the frame before you complete the sale.
