Not to worry Wim, in the end (after driving to look at the bike - having been provided with blurry photos that were no help whatsoever) it turns out the bike was in far worse condition than I'd thought. The frame was 'OK' but the rest less so. The seller wouldn't budge on the price, which was too high anyway, despite the rear derailleur being bent, the headset/BB being shot, and the bike in general needing lots of work. Oh well, lots more to look for!
My excuses for the late reply, @MrMister . Can't really help, I'm afraid, not well known with both DBR and Giant. I have a DBR on my wishlist tho (Axis TT :-) )
