    Few nicks and scratches here and there but nothing really big... will need new tires soon..maybe in the next 50-60 miles..but will be replacing asap.

    Thanks Ladies!!...

    Can't wait until Saturday to take her to the LBS for an inspection and for a short ride after that. I got it for my oldest son (17 y/o) He always ask me if he can go with me when I am going road biking . He really doesn't like Mountain biking but all he got is a Walmart MTB and he is unable to keep up with that even when we go around the neighborhood. He really don't like mountain biking like my youngest son. So I have been looking for something good but at a reasonable price because I really don't know if he really gonna take it serious , enjoy and appreciate road biking. So thats why I got this bike....but I am getting attached already ...lol..

    You might ask them to service the drive-train and cablewires. New wires are cheap. If the drive-train and shifting are optimal, your son will enjoy the riding experience that much more.
    I just took her around the block last night and it felt sooo nice and smooth !.. didn't play too much with the gears though but they felt ok. I don't think it will need big maintenance...maybe some adjusting to the brake levers I kinda felt one of them were a bit lose. But def she is going to the LBS ASAP !!!...I might drop her off tomorrow at my lunch break.
