Used 2012 Focus Izalco 3.0 safe to buy?
Hi Guys,
Looking at this FOCUS Izalco Pro 3.0 for sale. It is in my size and budget. Ultegra Groupset with FSA Crank. It looks pretty clean to me. I would say almost unused if not for the dirt? on the downtube. The shifter hoods have no damage so I am guessing it may have only been stored or at least not met any accidents? While it does not look like frame damage, my only concern is the marks on the downtube. They just look like dirt to me but I am not sure since I have never owned a carbon bike. Also the top tube seems to have a fine line along it. What do you guys think? What would this bike be worth? On a side note, I read somewhere that older Alu frames might not be good to buy because they have a shelf life. Does carbon have the same thing?
Is this just dirt? Top tube also seems to have a line along it. Shadow or crack?
From the condition of the hoods this bike looks to be barely used.
