Giant ATX 740
Hi all,
I'm looking to buy a used bike, and came across a Giant ATX 740 for sale. Apparently it's a model only sold in Hong Kong (not sure how it made it's way to Ontario), so I'm having trouble getting much information on it.
The only info in the ad (http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/166604/) is this:
What kind of suspension is that (Giant branded? Who makes it? Is it any good?) Any thoughts on how much it should be worth? Is $600 (Canadian dollars, so about $523.20 USD) a good deal? Any other comments on the bike at all? I'd like to learn as much as possible about it.
Here are some pictures:
Cheers!

It's still on Pinkbike classifieds after 4.5 years, so I'm going to go ahead and say the OP (and everyone else) decided it wasn't worth the money.
