• Confirm the frame markings and seller description match this archived model. Note every component that differs from the published build.
• Record the frame serial number. It should be legible, unaltered and consistent with the seller’s ownership history.
• Find the size marking on the bicycle and confirm the fit before judging the condition or price.

Archived: Frame: SuperX, BallisTec Carbon, SPEED SAVE, BB30- 83 Ai, 142x12mm thru-axle · Fork: SuperX, BallisTec Carbon, 1-1/8” to 1.5” steerer, 100x12mm thru-axle, 55mm offset · Carbon

• Inspect the frame in bright light, especially the head tube, bottom-bracket area, chainstays and clamped surfaces. Look for cracks, ripples, crushed sections or signs of impact.
• Stand behind and in front of the bicycle to look for obvious frame, fork or wheel misalignment. Ask directly about crashes, transport damage and repairs.
• Inspect the fork crown, blades, dropouts and visible steerer area. Check that it is straight, securely installed and free of cracks or impact damage.

Archived: Shifters: SRAM Force 1 HRD · Rear derailleur: SRAM Force 1 Type 2.1, Medium cage · Crankset: HollowGram Si, BB30-83, 119mm Ai Spindle, w/ OPI SpideRing, X-Sync®, 40t · Bottom bracket: FSA BB30 Bearings · Rear cogs: SRAM PG1130, 11-32, 11-speed · Chain: SRAM PC1130, 11-speed

• Shift through every available gear under light load. Hesitation, skipping or inconsistent indexing can reflect wear, damage, poor adjustment or mismatched replacement parts.
• Measure chain wear with a compatible gauge and inspect chainring, cassette or freewheel teeth. A new chain does not rule out wear in the remaining drivetrain.
• Turn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Inspect crank arms, chainring bolts and pedal threads for looseness or damage.

Archived: Brakes: SRAM Force hydro disc, flat mount, 160/140mm

• Inspect pads, rotors, calipers and the complete cable or hose path. Both levers should feel consistent and both calipers should release without persistent rubbing.
• Before riding, test every installed brake separately at walking speed. Each should stop firmly and release cleanly without its control reaching the end of its usable travel.

Archived: Wheel size: 700c · Rims: CX 1.0 Disc, Tubeless · Hubs: CX 1.0 Disc, 100x12 front, 142x12 thru axle rear (Ai offset dish rear) · Front tire: Schwalbe X-One, 700x33c · Rear tire: Schwalbe X-One, 700x33c

• Spin both wheels and watch for side-to-side and vertical movement. Check spoke tension, rim condition and hub play.
• Inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking, plugs, bulges or exposed threads and confirm the installed sizes are safe for the rims and available frame and fork clearance.
• Remove and reinstall or closely inspect both wheel-retention systems. Axles or quick releases should tighten correctly with undamaged threads, hardware and dropouts.
• Confirm whether the bike is actually set up tubeless, whether both tires hold pressure, and when sealant and rim tape were last serviced.

Archived: Headset: SuperX, 1-1/4” lower bearing, 25mm top cap · Handlebar: Cannondale C2 Compact, butted 6061 Alloy · Stem: Cannondale C2, 7050 Alloy, 31.8, 6 deg. · Seatpost: Cannondale C2 Carbon, 25.4x300mm · Saddle: Fi’zi:k Vesta Mg

• Apply the front brake and rock the bike to check for headset play or notchiness. Inspect the stem, handlebar and clamp zones, then confirm every fastener and control is secure.
• Check that the seatpost moves for adjustment and that the saddle, post and clamp hold securely without cracks, severe corrosion or damaged hardware.

• Before riding, confirm both wheels are secure, tires are safe, both brakes function, and the headset, handlebar, stem, cranks and pedals have no looseness.
• Begin at low speed. Test steering, braking and shifting progressively, then load the drivetrain and suspension only after the basic safety checks pass.
• Listen and feel for repeated knocks, grinding, skipping, brake pulsation or movement at joints. Stop the test if the bicycle cannot be controlled safely.
