I have the opportunity to buy a park rental bike at a good price for my son. Obviously it's not ideal since it'll have so many more runs and crashes on it than a personal bike. But it's also maintained professionally and regularly (that's the silver lining anyway lol) and helps get him going to the park most weekends next year on something better than the 2010 Trance X he's currently riding at Creek.
It's a '17 giant glory 2 alum. $3200 new so probably worth $2k if bought from an individual but I offered $1100 and they'll take that. No clue if the fork and shock have ever been rebuilt or what specially else has been done to keep it going these past 2 seasons.
So would you do it? I lost out on a sweet transition last weekend and I'm worried I'm just not going to find another nice 27.5 $1200 DH rig. At this price I can replace a few items and still keep the price down.
