So friggin cool. Modern bits but looks 100yrs old. I want one, but may not be able to afford one. What does something like this cost?
~15k which seems steep but when over 70% of the bike is made in America, in small quantities, and largely by hand it isn't cheap to produce. It isn't for everyone and it isn't meant to be. Someday I hope we grow enough to start offering a "better" value by getting better deals on parts because of our purchasing power so it is a bit more accessible.
15k seems ok for something like this, would definitely buy one if the start sending them to Australia ๐ฆ๐บ
While we don't ship them directly we have customers on the isle of man, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and I honestly want to say Australia. We do use iKon shocks which come from Australia though.๐
iKon shocks are great arent they. Had them on my Kwaka, went with Hagon (UK) shocks with a classic shroud for my Trumpy. They also make a good shock.
Anyway well done, nice looking bike. Be great for taking to a cancer fundraiser ride we have called "The distinguished gentleman's ride" https://www.gentlemansride.com/
IIRC The 450 was something like $14k depending on options. Spicy, but for an all hand-built bike (aside from the engine), not insane.
I looked into them a while back. Not exported to Canada, so I was out of luck. Shame.
