Hi...have the opportunity of buying the above bike for 350/400..apparently in vgc..I just wondered whthr this would be considered to be a good buy, if the bike is as said.

It was always a 9 speed bike (I gess you mean it now has a 3 ring chainset) - are you sure it is a 2007, and this is the sort of bike you need?0

Damn right they don't.
To answer your question....it looks a bloody good deal to me, as long as there's nothing major wrong with it.
I'm almost tempted to say pass him my way if you don't buy it!
I would echo SS's comment though. Make sure it's not more bike than you need. No point hauling around a whole hunk of extra weight.0 -
