How would you rate the Scott ADF team.. With a repaired crack

[peter cheadle]

Hi guys new to road cycling and looking at getting a Scott ADF team bike, know it's fairly old and had a crack repaired on the frame.. It's a 61 cm so like pulling teeth to find but just wanted to get some opinions on the bike and if a crack repaired properly is any problem.

 

It's going for R4200 so any advice would be great..

 

Regards

Keep away.  Carbon repairs well but aluminum has to be repaired expertly, which is seldom the case.  Love the frame 'though.  Been racing the AFD Pro for a few years and it is great.  If it still has the original components R4200 is a bit high (assuming the crack was not there) because dated at around 2003/4 nothing original is obtainable.

Steer clear- rather get a 2nd hand unrepaired bike...
