Archived: Frame: Scale RC HMF Carbon, Adjustable head angle, Syncros Cable Integration System, advanced shock & standing damping system, BB92, UDH Interface, 12x148mm with 55mm Chainline · Fork: Fox 32 Rhythm Grip, 3P, Kabolt 15x110mm axle, tapered steerer, Reb. Adj, Lockout

• 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.

• 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: Shifters: Shimano Deore Di2 SW-M6250 · Rear derailleur: Shimano XT Di2 RD-M8250 12-speed, Wireless Electronic Shift System · Crankset: Shimano XT FC-M8200, 34T · Bottom bracket: Shimano BB-MT500 PF · Cassette: Shimano XT CS-M8200, 10-51T · Chain: Shimano CN-M8100

• Confirm every shift battery charges and every control operates. Shift through the full cassette under light load while checking pairing, derailleur alignment and response at both ends of the range.
• 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 Deore BR-M6220 4-Piston; Rotors: (F) Shimano RT-CL700, 180mm / (R) Shimano RT-CL700, 160mm

• Inspect pads and braking surfaces, check the complete cable or hose path, and confirm both controls feel consistent and return cleanly.

Archived: Wheel size: 29 · Wheels: Syncros Silverton AL2, CL, F: 15x110mm, R: 12x148mm, 30mm Tubeless ready, 28H, Micro Spline · Front tire: Maxxis Aspen 29x2.4", 120TPI Foldable Bead, tubeless ready, EXO · Rear tire: Maxxis Aspen 29x2.4", 120TPI Foldable Bead, tubeless ready, EXO

• 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.
• 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: Syncros - Acros angle adjust & cable routing HS system, stainless, +-0.6° head angle adjustment, ZS56/28.6 – ZS56/40 MTB · Handlebar: Syncros Fraser 2.0 XC Alloy 6061 D.B., Flat Bar, 8°, 740mm, Syncros Performance XC lock-on grips · Stem: Syncros XC 2.0, Syncros Cable Integration System, -12° rise, 6061 Alloy, 31.8mm, 1 1/8" · Seatpost: Syncros dropper post SP-M100-AL2, 31.6mm · Saddle: Syncros Celista Cut Out, Cr-Mo Rails

• 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.
• Cycle the dropper post repeatedly. It should reach full travel, remain extended under load and have no unusual oil, excessive rotational play or damaged remote, cable, hose or battery.
