What to check before you buy
On a used mountain bike the expensive wear is hidden: check the suspension fork and rear shock for oil on the stanchions and ask when they were last serviced (roughly every 50-100 hours of riding). Spin the cranks and wheels and listen for rough bearings in the bottom bracket, hubs and headset, and rock the rear triangle side to side to feel for play in the pivot bearings on a full-suspension frame. Look closely for cracks around welds and the head tube, and check the chain, cassette and chainring for hooked, shark-fin teeth that mean the whole drivetrain is due for replacement.
