Popped in the local LBS & found this hanging from rafters.Very tempted to purchase NOT because its 650b but it looks ****ing lush.BUT it's £1900 + shock price.

Any opinions ?

Too expensive. By far.

Hand made in Germany. 5 year unlimited warranty, transferable upon sale. Much rarer/special/boutique than any Santa Cruz, Turner, Ibis or similar. Horst Link.

There are plenty of mass produced, made in taiwan, frames that are close to that price, some higher even.

If I was the op, the only thing that would stop me would be the fact that I'd want something custom, in terms of geometry, colour, finishing kit etc.

still doesn't justify the cost. £2300 odd for an alu frame? I don't care where its made.
Nice though, don't get me wrong.
