I have just had a look at this again and it is a bit too expensive.
I understand that it's hard to price the quality of ride this bike has.... it's really kind of magic !
I have a number of really nice bikes but this is the one I like riding about town and in to work, there is some thing about it that I would pay GBP 350 for, but I understand thats a very personal thing.
**So I will reduce the price to GBP 320 including posage to the UK **
I would value opinions on the price of components if I was to split the bike up.
These are the prices I was thinking of plus a contribution to the postage costs.

Frame with headset + Seatpin GBP 150 + 12 postage
Rear Wheel: Double fixed 28 hole Novotec sealed bearing hub on Navigator Clincher rim spaced to 136mm Centres
**Split price GBP 50 GBP plus 8 for tyre and tube **
Front Wheel: Formula 32 hole sealed bearing hub on Planet X box section clincher rim.
**Split price GBP 40 + GBP 8 for tyre and tube **
Tyres: Continental 3000 with red side wall strip
Saddle: Scott
