On the Path Racer, the cost of the seat, grips and tires exceeds the asking price.
I would assume that the cables and pads are new as well.
I bet the seller's got at least $400,00 tied up in it. Bike/Parts/Labour.
The Gyes saddles are well made ( I have one) but take some time to break in.
It's like vintage cars ,it's always better to buy one that somebody else has spent their money on.
