Used-bike inspection
If you’re buying this bike used
Archive note: Detailed component specifications are unavailable for this record. These universal checks apply to the bicycle in front of you, not to an assumed original build.
Before any test ride: both brakes should stop the bike firmly and release cleanly; both wheels should run true and be securely attached; tires should have no casing damage; and the headset, handlebar, stem, cranks and pedals should have no looseness or play.
Follow the full used-bike inspection order →- Frame & forkInspect the complete frame and fork in bright light for cracks, dents, distortion, corrosion, impact marks, suspicious paint differences or signs of repair. Check the head tube, bottom-bracket area, dropouts, joints and clamped surfaces especially closely.Inspect the frame and fork →
- Wheels & tiresSpin both wheels and watch for side-to-side or vertical movement. Check spoke tension, rim condition, hub play and wheel attachment, then inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking, bulges or exposed threads.Check wheels and tires →
- BrakesIdentify the installed brake system and test every installed brake separately before riding. Each should stop the bicycle firmly and release cleanly. Inspect pads and braking surfaces for wear or contamination and check the complete cable, hose or linkage path for damage.Inspect the brakes →
- DrivetrainMeasure chain wear when applicable, inspect the chainring and rear sprockets, and operate every available gear under light load. Turn the cranks slowly and check the bottom bracket, crank arms and pedals for roughness, damage or play.Check drivetrain wear →
- Controls & contact pointsCheck the headset, handlebar and stem for looseness, damage or misalignment. Confirm the seatpost can be adjusted and that the saddle, pedals and every rider control are secure and operate normally.
