    Do the math and work it out for yourself, use commonsense - look at the retail price of a Saracen Amplitude, add price of forks and bar (if different) and then reduce price by 30-40%.

    So:

    2008 Retail Price: £300

    Deity Handlebars: £45

    Rockshox Dart 2s: £70

    = £415

    60% of £415 = £249 (Est)

    So yeah, you're getting a good deal - ish.

    If the bike hasn't been serviced since purchase, I'd say reduce 5% of the price for every year it hasn't. Just my rough guide of working stuff out.
