Is it stolen ??

    It's an old Zesty from around 2008, if anything I'd say the price is a little high!

    Condition is everything, if it's genuinely in almost as new condition then the price is only a little bit on the high side, if it's had a hard life then its much to high!

    Well I wouldn't be shelling £850 on ANY bike (except brand new from a store) without either seeing it or lots of detailed photo's and still having purchase protection!
