2006 Scott Scale 30

Archived: Frame: Bonded/monocoque · Fork: Fox F80RL, 80mm travel · Aluminum/magnesium, single crown

• 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.

Archived: Fork: Fox F80RL, 80mm 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.
• Ask for dated fork-service records. A clean exterior does not establish the condition of internal seals, oil or bushings.

Archived: Group: Mountain Mix · Shifters: Shimano Deore LX Dual Control · Front derailleur: Shimano Deore LX · Rear derailleur: Shimano Deore XT · Crankset: Shimano Deore LX, 22/32/44 teeth · Bottom bracket: Shimano Deore LX · Rear cogs: 9-speed, 11 - 32 teeth · Chain: Shimano CN-HG53, 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.

• 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: Front: Mavic XM 317, Rear: Mavic XM-317 Disc, 32-hole · Hubs: Shimano HB-M535 Disc · Front tire: 26 x 2.00" Scott OXYD 120TPI Kevlar

• 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" integrated FSA 9 alloy · Handlebar: Scott Hot Rod 580mm · Stem: Scott Pro · Seatpost: Scott RC 03 6061 · Saddle: Scott Racing CR-MO · Pedals: Shimano PD-M520 SPD

• 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.
