Maybe...

So, I have this super-dope Giant Carbon NRS-1, all titted out.
It is a true 'team issue' frame, which I believe is a bit different from stock.
There is a full warranty.

This is a race bike, best summed up as a 4" hardtail, (in a good way).

Carbon is a perfect material for what this bike is intended for, so please, hold off on the carbon debates, folks!

Anyhoo, I have had this bike since last year, and basically, I never ride it.
It is an absolute crusher for climbing, hardpack, racing, designed for just going flat out fast.

( I tend to ride rowdier terrain, so I usually ride bigger bikes...that is the reason for the possible sale).

Components:
Fox float RLC 100 06'
Fox float rear
Magura Carbon Marta brakes, 160mm
XTR 06' crankset (22, 32, 44)
XTR rear derailleur
XTR TI cassette, 11-34
XT shifters
Carbon Monkeylite HB
Giant carbon 105mm stem
Woodman Carbon Seatpost
Titus Ti railed saddle (Selle San Marcos)
Stan's Olympic ZTR rims, (tubeless compatible design)
Sapim X-ray spokes, on Chris King hubs

(just the wheels would be $700!!)
Ritchey Z-Max 2.3 tires

This bike is about 24.5 pounds, and is 4" front and rear.
It is a rocketship.

Anyone interested?
It was around $4000 new,

(edit, more like $5000, retail)

I am thinking $1700.
I think that is pretty fair!

That is a sick xc bike!

NRS's are sweet, if I didn't buy one last summer I would be all over this. Climbs better than my HT
