those tyres haven't got much grip for a mountain bike  ::)

Might be worth mentioning that Trek have a lifetime warranty on their Frames if you have the reciept. (and are or claim to be the original Owner ;) )

I had a 5 year old frame I broke last year.  Sent them the frame and they replaced it with a new one.  8)

Looking at the pics the brakes are V brakes, so cable!

I was just wondering if they made hydraulic V Brakes... mregan, what do you top hydraulic disk brakes up with? Is it just hydraulic oil?

DOT 5.1 brake fluid. You would then need to purchase a bleed kit etc. best option is take your brakes to your local bike shop until you know what you are doing.

There is hydraulic v brakes but are pretty rare over here. I think Magura make them or made them. I have no experience of them.

sorry but ive decided not to sell, im just going to upgrade some of the components and keep it so no longer available  :)
