Hi!
I think the price is pretty fair at the first sight, but also it seems that the bike has been driven a lot, for example the pedals and the crank are polished from the usage. The bike is serviced regularly, it looks that the owner take care of it.
What drawbacks could be at that bike? In the description is written that I only have to replace the rear wheel, it has an 8, or just repair it, and the headset bearings. The crank chainwheel looks a bit abused, but the seller said that it’s okay, however, If I have to replace it, won’t be a disaster.
Here is the bike, it was bought in 2019.
What do you think, is it worth to buy it?

I have that model Nomad. Great bike. I’m not looking to replace it anytime soon.
There’s definitely a risk of an untrustworty seller trying to offload a cracked frame on you, for example I wrecked & cracked (and replaced with new) my rear triangle a couple years ago. So I recommend you give it a thorough inspection in-person.
