Is this really what it is worth?

So I was trawling the Craigslist listings in my area and this popped up.

https://allentown.craigslist.org/bik...495612207.html



So is this worth that amount or is the seller overeager?

It is worth what someone is willing to pay. Are you willing to pay that price for it?

I wouldn't spend that much for that bike, the only way it could be worth anywhere near that much is maybe if it is was owned by an actual pro from the team and signed by them and had all new fresh top end parts including CeramicSpeed pulley wheels and Trickstuff Maxima brakes.
