Hi guys,
I'm new in the MTB hobby and I'm looking for first bike.
I have an option to buy a perfect condition Cannondale Jekyll 800 from 2003 With Lefty titanium for 800$.
What do you think about it?
thanks.

    Not much, is that AUS$ or CAN$ or US$?

    And without seeing it or the spec who knows.

    It is 10 years old so I feel the fork could well do with a service......

    The fork has been serviced one week ago in a Cannondale store which it's profession is servicing the Lefty's.
    They had to clean the air filter and replace spring but they said it is in an excellent condition.

    Did you post this in every forum!?

    You won't get a better bike for $800, if it's genuinely in good nick then go nuts.

    Yea I kinda did, I didn't know where it will be the right place to post it so i posted it in three different forums.
    It is in a great nick and the Lefty fork was serviced in cannondale's agency, they had to change the oil, clean the air filter and replace the spring but they said it is in a great condition.
