A few years ago I purchased from the original owner who had bought for his wife in the vain hope of introducing her to mountain biking, so at the time effectively a new bike. I have not ridden it even once, as after a number of road bike accidents and subsequent surgeries unfortunately have decided to call time on mountain biking. The bike is all stock as if from the showroom floor, but since I am not a downhill racer type I slightly shortened the handle-bars which now measure 26".
