I have two burning questions at the moment:

1) I'm not at all familiar with this model, and wonder if anyone can clue me in at all before I go look at it?

2) Does it seem reasonable to ask $150 for a 10 year old bike?

(She said she paid $900 for it when it was new - I guess to me whether it's worth it will depend on whether it needs significant amounts of tuning up and replacement tires and such-like.)

Thanks for any advice/opinions!
yes, i think 150 for a 10 year old bike in good working condition is a great price. I bet the same bike in a shop would cost 200 or even a little more.
