Well - thanksfully I have not paid normal price for everything and the stuff has been collected over a long period. As for the regular price for the bike in new condition I would guess approx 9000 USD :o

here you go: The right upper "turtle" controls the position of the seat tower. The left upper right "turtle" controls the progressiveness/linearness of the shock movement. The small barrel on the lower link controls the travel setting.
The upper turtles are pressed in to the frame and tightend with the nolt situated in the middle of the two turtles. :)
