I know these are like white rocking horse poo, but twenty two hundred quid with a headtube crack?

Some very nice kit on it, but that’s got to be hopeful

Dibs on the crack if the buyer splits.

Seems reasonable to me, remember that most of these are ornaments these days so whether it's racked or not isn't massively impacting its useability. It'll be worth what someone's willing to pay for it but given I don't think I've seen one of those for sale since they were current I would say that c£2k is reasonable. Pretty much every dh bike of the era is either cracked, repaired, or waiting to crack. I had an old frame crack just sat there, all because there was so much tension welded into it.
