Monty x-lites have no seattubes, i have one myself
they are quite nice, but be sure that it is in good condition because i had to spend quite alot of money to make mine rideable

My friend is selling a Monty X-Alp Magura for less than that. It's a far better bike, and although it may not be in quite as good shape, overall is a bit better of a bike.

And to answer your question, I would definitely NOT pay $350 for that. My max would be like $250, if that.

'No clue what a x-alp is. Link? Pics?

x-alp is the v-brake version of monty with a steel frame. They are inexpensive and can take a beating, the geo is the same as the x-lite, only it is heavier, not as good brakes and less stand-over room in the cockpit. For pics, it depends on the year.

That GT looks like some wierd conversion from bmx bike to trials bike. I'd keep a look out on this forum... there is usually awesome bikes and super duper prices. Ebay is a pain compared to otn.
