That look like a sweet deal to me.

 

here are a link to the specs.

I see the bike has been upgraded from a triple to a double crank. that seems like a good idea.

 

Now the most important thing is to get measured to make sure the size is right.

 

If you have a friend that have some knowlage about bikes take him with to check out the bike.
