hmm...depende. pero kung mag-upgrade ka, bakit 'di na lang bnew lahat?
kung magbubuo ako ng bike, normally halong bnew and second hand. pero kung upgrade or replace ng sira, normally i go brand new.
regarding your inquiry, kung drivetrain, for cogs and rings, check mo yung ngipin. if it's triangular, huwag na. for chain, check for chain stretch, then again mura lang ang chain. for shifters, you won't know unless may cable kung naglo-lock pa yung mechanism. for derailleurs naman, wear and tear lang, sa RD yung ngipin ng jockey wheels, sa FD yung dehins bent.

even is mag-abang ka ng good condition components, the question is, kabisado mo ba yung compatibility?

check for hairline cracks, leaks, and wear due to friction

I wouldn't buy a 2nd hand carbon frame or other carbon parts used for more than 2 or 3 years. (i.e. frame, handle bar, stem, crank arms, seat post)
