just make sure all the pivots and bushes are in good nick. if you buy one with screw'd bushes, linkages you may be up for some $$ but not 100% sure. good bike to ride and they withstood the test of time well. pity giant canned em i got my girlfriend the last small avalible from what i could find about 6 months ago and pimped it a bit. hubs on the nrs 3 and 2 are not realy good thatd be the only thing id change (i did that straight away).

Chainstays. Have a VERY good look about the "dimple" on the inside of the stay. Both sides but especially the R/H (drive side). Take the wheel out when you do it.
