2008 Jamis Dakar XCR Pro

Archived: Frame: TIG-welded/Monocoque · Fork: Fox 32 F100RL, 100mm travel · Single

• Inspect composite areas in bright light for impact marks, cracks, ripples or crushed clamp zones. Check metal sections and welds separately for dents or cracking.

Archived: Fork: Fox 32 F100RL, 100mm travel · Rear shock: Fox Float RP2, 100mm travel

• Inspect the fork stanchions for scratches or coating wear, look for oil or dirt rings at the seals, and cycle the fork through its travel while checking for binding or bushing play.
• Inspect the shock shaft and seals, cycle the rear suspension through its travel and check for oil, air loss, binding or unusual top-out and bottom-out noises.
• Hold the rear brake and load the suspension from several directions. Check pivots, bearings and mounting hardware for knock, looseness or side play.
• Ask for dated fork, shock and pivot-service records. A clean exterior does not establish the condition of internal seals, oil, bushings or bearings.

Archived: Group: Shimano XT · Shifters: Shimano XT · Front derailleur: Shimano XT, clamp on 34.9mm · Rear derailleur: Shimano XTR Shadow · Crankset: Shimano XT, 22/32/44 teeth · Bottom bracket: Shimano XT · Cassette: SRAM PG-980 · Rear cogs: 9-speed, 11 - 34 teeth · Chain: SRAM PC-971 with Power Link, 1/2 x 3/32"

• 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: Shimano XT hydraulic brakes, Shimano XT hydraulic levers

• Squeeze each lever firmly. It should feel consistent and return cleanly. Check levers, hoses and calipers for fluid, inspect pad thickness and contamination, and examine rotors for wear or bending.

Archived: Wheel size: 26" wheels · Rims: Mavic XM317 disc, 32-hole · Hubs: Shimano Deore disc · Front tire: 26 x 2.10" WTB ExiWolf

• 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.

Archived: Headset: 1 1/8" threadless Aheadset Zero-Stack · Handlebar: Easton Monkey Lite SL CNT · Stem: Easton EA50 · Seatpost: Easton EA50, 31.6mm diameter · Saddle: WTB Silverado Team · Pedals: Not included

• 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.
