cannondale capo?

Hi,
I was looking at a used 2010 Cannondale Capo, supposedly in good condition. Is $400 a decent price for this bike, and what should I look for when I pick it up?
thanks in advance.

You could probably get 400 for the wheelset alone.

That's a stellar deal.

Awesome, Thanks.
Anything I should check for in specific when I get it, to make sure it's in good condition?

If not too late, check the frame for dents, check parts for rust, check brake function, and check all bearings for play or chunchiness. Then enjoy your bike.
