My LBS has a new old stock Rize 4 originally $2499 for $1499. It would have a lifetime warranty to me as the original purchaser. I think it's a 2010 model they've just not sold yet but I'm not sure of the year. I've seen a few used for sale in the $1200 range so $1499 brand new seems pretty good. Questions:

1. Is this a good deal?

2. What are the thoughts on this bike?

I'm just getting back into riding and this looks like a very good deal compared to paying full price for any sort of 2012/2013 bike or buying a used bike like this for $1200 instead of brand new for $1499.

So, all thoughts/comments/opinions/input greatly appreciated.

Oh, they also have a Scalpel 5 that is also originally $2499 for $1499.
