Orange Mr.XC frame & Marzocchi forks

[murf]

Ive decided i have too many bikes & too little room so i've split my Orange to use some of the bits for my other bikes. The bits i dont need i'm listing here

Year 2000 Orange Mr XC frame. A pretty rare bike as they didnt make them for long. It has 5in of rear wheel travel, buttery smooth thanks to the fox shock and really is a great bike. Its in good nick with no play in the pivots. There is some minor bubbling of the paint & a couple of scratches but there are no cracks and it really just needs a good clean.
Size to be confirmed tomorrow but i think its an 18in.

Comes with Orange seatpost, new shimano BB and a nearly knacked ritchey headset.
I'd like £170+post for it. Is this reasonable or too steep? Feedback appreciated

Secondly i have a set of Marzocchi Bomber MXC's from 2002.
1 1/8th threadless steerer, to be measured for length tomorrow!
Nice fork with 80mm travel, air sprung. In good nick bar a couple of peeled bits on the stickers and a big scuff, pictured.
£50+post

Local pickup/ inspection more than welcome

Ok, been busy with the tape!

Fork steerer tube is 190mm long

Frame:
Centre of BB shell to top of seat tube=42cm
Centre of seat tube to centre of head tube (straight across, not following the contour of the top tube)= 56cm
That to me indicates a 16.5 in frame, i'm 5ft10 however and it fits perfectly as i think they were designed to run a fairly long seatpost & have a compact frame.
