I have the opportunity to buy the specialized tarmac fitted with full dura ace components.

The seller tells me that he bought the bike new in 2007 and he had it fitted with dura ace components (don't know when that was done yet). He is asking in the $1500 ball park, which is way beyond my budget, especially for a model that is already 7 years old.

I looked at the specialized website and apparently this bike and model came equipped with ultegra components.

I wasn't sure how to gauge the price of the bike before I make my offer, so thought I'd get your take on it.

I am going to test ride it this weekend to see if I like the bike.

Would appreciate any advice.

Thanks.
