Must be quite old.
They were considered budget full sussers,so if you are planning on doing anything remotely rugged,then it's a no no.
If you are just wanting it to do fireroads and woodland trails,then sure why not.
How much ?

120 quid with 2 extra wheels fitted with road tyres I am far to old to do rugged butch stuff!

They trend at £65 and £90 on ebay,so it sounds as if he is trying to pocket an extra few quid for the wheel deal.
I would need to see it TBH,but it's a 90's budget bike.Solid alloy frame though and should do you fine on the woodlands and fireroads.Roads as well.
Try and knock him down £30,as that sounds about right.

To be fair,it looks in great nick for it's age.

But yeah,fair enough,it should be fine for a wee blast about

Thanks for that I was told it has less than a 1000 miles on it been sitting in garage for ages.How old do you think it is and how much do you think it cost new?

 

[OskarTennisChampion]

I would say late 90's,and a retail price of about £450-£570.I know the 830 model was about 570
So not exactly an Apollo
