What to check when buying used

Inspection

Frame condition

Inspect the frame, fork, welds, and high-stress areas for cracks, dents, or prior repairs.

Inspection

Drivetrain wear

Check chain stretch, cassette teeth, chainrings, and shifting under load before negotiating price.

Inspection

Wheel condition

Inspect rims, hubs, spokes, and bearing play; ask about the tire age and any prior wheel rebuilds.

Inspection

Service history

Ask for service records covering bearings, brakes, drivetrain, and any frame or fork warranty work.

Inspection

Battery health

Request battery cycle count and any diagnostic report; older packs lose range and capacity.

Inspection

Motor warranty

Verify motor warranty status and any firmware updates from the manufacturer dealer.
