So I found this bike listed for around 760$ I will list specs as I have no idea whats good.
Frameset: BOMBTRACK Script M 54cm – strong frame and forks made of thick aluminum
FSA rudders
Rear wheel: DT SWISS R540 + spokes 32 pcs sapim laser + hub Dia Compe Gran Compe + cog novatec 16t
Front wheel: DT SWISS R540 + 32pcs sapim laser spokes + Novatec A265SBT hub
Tires 2X Continental Grand Prix 4 seasons 28mm front 25mm rear (Impenetrable, with amazing grip on wet surfaces) + I can dig something out of the basement for a spare
Handlebar: XLC RISER BAR cut to about 54 cm + ESI grips (if someone prefers a bar, I have a dedy handlebar, I can replace it)
FSA SLK 90mm stem
Satori seatpost
FIZIK ANTARES saddle
BLB Hold fast pedals (if someone prefers spds, there is a pair of 520 as a replacement)
Lasco crank (nothing special, but the crank is mega strong, I had a hard time using the same one in my previous Blade [different copy] and now I still have it in my mountain bike)
I don’t remember what’s in there, probably something new, but it was replaced shortly before I stopped riding
The Gebhardtt GTP 46T deck still has some life ahead of it (on titanium screws)
(If something is weird it’s because I translated it) Thanks!

I own a Bombtrack Needle, which I believe is the steel version of this frameset. My experience is that it’s an awesome ride but with some caveats:
– The rear geometry is a bit close, which means clearance for tires larger than 28mm will be an issue.
– This also means that in order to properly fit a chain you need either a half-link chain or a chain with a half-link adapter.
So yeah OP get it, put a prime number tooth chainring on, and have fun!
overpriced
760 Is too much for a first bike
no its not. get rid of it immediately.
I’d ask $600 or $500 even, but great frame from what I’ve heard. Swap out the components as you go but I’d hop on this as long as it is the correct size
