Re: Need to know if this is a good setup?!
The main thing, is the bike the right size, does it fit or are you adapting to it?
On Price, location in your User CP will help us to know whar currency. Generally, bikes loose 40% value on the first day.

that bike is worth about £2000 (so roughly $3400 usd) new, so probably half that second hand (given he is a mate). It is worth noting that the specs you have given are NOT those for a beginners bike. I would look at something cheaper first off. |
