you could do a lot worse if they are in good condition
my 19yr old Rascal is still my go to hardtail

i have swapped out every part on that bike multiple times, except for the mission control bar/stem combo.

the custom paint is a thing to behold still....this is a model years before gary sold to trek so the quality cant be beat.

my bike has been all over the western US in all kinds of weather
3foot deep muddy rivers in the pacnorwet
12000ft high peaks in colorado
2ft deep snow drifts in NM
115degree rides in so cal mtns
and everything in between

give it a quick spray down after every messy ride... lube the cables, derailleur, brakes, and chain and its always ready for more.
