the bike is in great condition, there a few minor scratches on the stancions of the fork, these DO NOT break seals or leak oil in anyway. The reason for all SAINT components is a very good friend of mine rides for shimano and got the parts for me when i built the bike. the saint derailure is tough as nails, the one thats one there is the original. so if by some act of god you break the one thats on, there is a new one in the box. and the brakes are tough also and swaping pads is retard proof.
