If it doesn't, you may be up for any or all of these and so your bargain could add up to be quite a bit pricier, but once that's done, still an OK vehicle. If it passes all of the above - it may well be great. If no 'jiggady', next, try changing gears under load - (easiest is riding out of the saddle up a hill) - any swap/change up/down of its own accord here could indicate the need for a new cassette and chain. When riding around, a slight jiggady-jiddady noise could just be the gears' indexing is a little bit out - which is a slight cable adjustment. When riding, feel the pedal motion to see it's smooth. Check how easily the chain spins around - spin the pedals backwards and ensure the chain doesn't have any points where it seems to 'stick' a bit and so the jockey-wheels on the derailleur (the bit that changes the gears at the rear) don't bounce around. Check the tyres - for wear obviously, but also the sidewalls for any perishing/cracking. Squeeze the brake levers - if they seem a bit 'lethargic' that could be rectified with some lube down the cables, but if it's been neglected, it may need new cables.
