Ok so someone local is selling a Saracen Mantra 3 2007, he is asking £120? Is it worth it or is it overpriced?

    Dunno. Depends on condition and whether it has any upgrades. It could be worth anywhere between £20 and £200

    If the chain and gears are in good condition then £100 absolute max.
    It's a really heavy old tank with a pretty low spec fork.
    If you're planning on riding off road I wouldn't bother.

    Probably £20ish. It's not a five minute job.
