I have the opportunity to purchase a 2007 Fuji Team RC roadbike for $1400. I have been told this is a great deal. An excellent bike at a fantastic price. Not sure about buying a bike that is 5 years old although it has never been ridden. Any thoughts? Here are the specs.

at first does not seem to be a great price, what kind of components and wheels are on it?

If it's full campy record or dura-ace it would be a sweet deal.

Well MSRP is $4000 and the bikes comes with mostly dura ace, except for ultegra brakes and FSA SL-K cranks. Probably not a terrible deal depending on the shape the components are in. If its been heavily ridden for 4 years then the components are probably shot. I w old have it looked over by an LBS and if it check out offer 1200 or so.

Edit: just retread OP. if this is NOS or a garage peacekeeper in good shape 1400'is a steal.
