Its not unreasonable for ebay imo. Seen F&F separate on here for £350 each.
Seems a fair price for frame and forks.
The forks fetch good money and a lot of people really rate the ride of the frames. Personally i always found them a bit stiff, good for racing i should imagine as they are very quick.

Re:
Do people not realise that these are just Raleigh made frames with no graphics, that were shipped out and then badged up by xlite as their own products lol
I bought a full mtrax 400 elite with lx/xt and a mint pair of Judy sl's for less than some have seen the xlite frames sell for

Re: Re:
I think a lot do yes, but i think the x lite name adds to it a bit.
A lot of things are like it nowadays, and in the past come to think of it. Not just bikes, but cars are often other makes/models underneath for example, just rebadged.
Owned Raleigh and a Dyna Tech badged ones but never an X Lite one. Maybe it would have been faster still with X Lite decals

Re:
Very nice package! Price is a tad strong perhaps, but try finding both the X-Lite branded frame and the matching Trimnell fork as a package
FWIW the frames do indeed ride very nicely. I have a later one which has been destickered (Branded M-Trax 450 Elite I think). It's been lovingly thrashed and is sat waiting for a rebuild! The later ones benefit from losing the rear canti brake hanger which looks a bit off in my opinion..
