It was a composite frame. Over the past two/maybe three years I upgraded the brakes to Deore, the rear mech broke, so it had deore put on there and last year, i discovered that what i thought was a creaky bottom bracket was really a cracked crank arm so that was a new crankset and BB and two weeks ago i put a new rear tire on it - in retrospect maybe i should have listed it for $750 or so and then see what happened - but I wanted to get rid of it and that was the price I had in mind.
On the flip side, I feel like there was a little play in the front wheel and it likely needed some bearings and a brake bleed as well as some wheel truing.

But for a normal person those would be issued they wouldn't know to address in the slightest. Great insight. I see stores have no bikes on the shelves at the moment. What did you replace with?
