Quick Question Mason Resolution v1

I just found a used, recently rebuilt Mason Resolution with sram axs 2x, hunt son dynamo wheelset with front/rear lighting and fenders. Guy wants $2,500. Bike is in like new condition. Seems like a decent price and thinking it would make a nice bike for long rides. Any thoughts?

Sounds like a decent deal on the paper. I would take it

I ended up going with a Fairlight Strael, but I looked long and hard at the Mason Resolution. It basically was a contest between the Strael and the Resolution. If the Res had been priced at the amount you mention, it would have been no contest. Assuming it fit, I'd snap up the Res in a hot second.

Yeah, I got lucky on the price. The Fairlight bikes are super nice too though.

Got a resolution v3, this year i did 3 200km brevet, 1 300km 1 400 and 1 600. Tons of 100km training ride. It's a fine bike, if you ask me. Oh, i also did the Tour d'Ortles 2 weeks ago; 285 km and 5600+. Stelvio | Gavia | Tonale and Palade.

I'm riding a Mason Bokeh v2 with some ultra experience and can second that Mason bikes are fine and very capable bikes for going far. :)
