Known Issues

Just needs new cables for the gears. I still use my bike now and again but due to spinal problems I'm not ment to be riding. So it's best to go to someone who will enjoy it as much as I did.

What we check

  • When a private seller gives a frame number, we check it against a stolen-bike registry and the theft reports filed with us before the advert goes live.
  • An advert whose frame number matches a theft report is hidden until the seller shows the bike is theirs.
  • Every message is checked for signs of a scam, such as asking you to pay before you collect or a link that hides where it goes. If a message shows one, you see a warning with it.
