Hi Claire,

Is your friend still looking for an mtb?

I have a 2009 Genesis io-id I plan to sell soon. Check the spec below

Yes she is - what size frame and how much are you thinking of pricewise?

Thanks :-)

Thanks :-)

Its a 17.5 inch and I was looking for £450 ono

Good points-it all works perpectl

Bad points-the frame has some scratches but thats about it

They retail for £1319.99 now http://www.genesisbikes.co.uk/bikes/mountain/ioid/io-id-alfine-8/specs

I think its alot of bike for the money, with an internal hub (hub and shifter cost £200 alone) it should make for a pretty bullit proof bike for winter or long periods of storage.

I was going to give anyone on the forum first choice otherwise its going onto ebay.

Thanks Claire, Mark

Will ask her when she gets in later tonight.

okay, if she is interested it might be best to text me as I don't log on that often.

Thanks for the offer but she is sticking to the original budget of 200-250 ish.
