Thinking about buying this bike, I think its an 03 -04 Salsa La Cruces frame, DA 9 spd shifters, DA derailulars, Tufo t30 tires, Cane creek volos team ti tubluar wheels, Thomson seatpost ,deda bar and stem, eggbeaters, avid shorty Ti brakes, DA crankset w/salsa 38-48 rings, I haven't weighed it but is probably around 17.5 lbs

He is asking 800.00, he built it up and never rode it, is it worth it, what would you pay?

I'd say that's well worth it. I doubt it's sub 18 lbs, but that has nothing to do with the value.

its a 57cm, and it feels as light as my road bike which is 17.5 so it may be under 18

Nice frame, pretty decent components and never ridden - that's a pretty darn good deal.
