Just a quick West Sussex hello to all here.
Hopefully I will be getting my first CRM250 tomorrow,
Its a Mk3, thats all I know about it at the moment.
Always been a trialy/enduro/crosser rider.
Apart from the usual checks, Is there anything in
particular I should be looking for?
It has been used for laning but he assures me its
been regularly serviced and well maintained.

Many thanks
Bob

Hi splund and welcome.
Wheel bearings require more attention than most bikes.
Apart from that ,yes its all the normal caveats, is it his, to sell? does it go , in all the gears,? does it stop ?, any ominous expensive sounding noises? it is a TRAIL bike you want right?
regards Mike

OK thanks for that, I dont know much about the bike, until tomorrow,
but I will check the wheel bearings for sure.
They do seem to get a good write up on the net.
I will post pics if I get it, im that excited I will probably
buy it anyway :)
