    Depending on condition it's a perfectly decent bike and I'd say it's worth that. Those frames were expensive at the time, but a bit dated now.

    If it's all in VERY GOOD useable condition, most importantly the rear shock, then I'd say it's just about worth that, if it's just in good condition it's probably £150 over priced.
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.
