Good buy?

I got this Craigslist find today. 09 Marin kentfield cs. Just needs 2 new tires. Paid $50. Not real high end, but there is still value right?

I will 4 sure use it. As as soon as I get some new tires. Dry rotted to death. Don't know how that happens in just a few years.

I mean, you can't even buy a Wal-Mart RoadMaster Sudo-MTB for $50 bucks so I say you did well, might want to spend the extra $50 and have a good LBS do a "tune-up" on it to make sure componets are working and don't need "regreased". JMHO, ENJOY!

Marin's a great brand, great bike, just not much market share. Company just got bought by some private equity money, maybe new owners will invest in the brand.
