I have a friend looking to buy a mountain bike for cross country riding and was offered to buy this for $1600. I don't know enough about bikes to say whether this is a good deal. Is it?

Looks rapid. Yeah – I’d say it’s a good deal, wheels alone would go for close to $1600 new. The groupset is very nice as well.
Edit – if you are just getting into MTB maybe skip this one. It’s fragile, very aggressive position, and replacement costs are going to be very expensive.
I personally wouldn’t, it has a nice drivetrain that’s about it
Noooooo
I wouldn’t say it’s worth that much especially given the state of mountain bike prices right now
Depends on your use, if you’re going to be a cross county rider that doesn’t do a lot of downhill then sure, give or take $200 or so.
Rear derailleur looks cool but the rest of this bike is pretty mid or outdated
Not even remotely
Ew no
This is def worth $1600, but it’s not a great first bike for a noob…
If the frame and wheels are carbon then maybe.
