A RT57 has come up for sale near me what I am wondering is it worth the money it’s up for £700 or open to offers.

Listing says the the following

Plant x rt57 carbon road bike in mint condition size medium i think. Im 5ft 10inch as a reference. Sram force 22 gears with fsa brakes. Wheels are vision team.30 With dura ace c35 decals. Prologo nagQTR replica seat.k-edge out front garmin holder. Elite canible cages and bottles. Shimano 105 pedals included with spiuk carbon road shoes Real eye catching bike

The listing also inc a few bits of castelli kit which may or may not fit me, the shoes as it happens are in my size. As for frame size I’m 5 9 so maybe ok.

    Going off the Planet X size guide it should be a good size for you, but only you will know that by sitting on the bike. If it is in mint condition sounds like an ok price for the spec

    They don't know the size and have put fake decals on the wheels. Reliable seller??

    Size given is 'medium' which is a valid PX size. The seller also appears to be very clear about the wheels' appearance being changed.

    Either way, £700 for an RT57 is probably £150-200 more than it should be...

    I was half joking although the seller only "thinks" it's a medium and is the sort of person that would change stickers on wheels....

    Does sound overpriced to me too.
