Oh like the "I can't justify the price so it's shit" Pinkbike school of commentary?a self coping mechanism as to why I wouldn't like one... in that sexy Irish green colour.
You are missing the point. You don't buy an Atherton or Acto because it's any better, it's different, premium and exclusive and that's how those brands have positioned themselves in the market. If you thought about bikes objectively we'd all be riding Giants. Thank God for irrational purchases!

You might have missed the post but I tried to buy an AM150 frame 6 weeks before I went to the UK last year. Luckily/sadly their posted lead time of 6 weeks had blown out to 12-15 weeks.
Yes a completely unnecessary bling buy, just because I was in the country.
A guy rides a Bastion past my place sometimes. When I'm out walking the dog I have to catch myself when I start to put my hand out to hail him down for a look at it. I'm sure he doesn't want to stop for someone to drool on his rig.

I have drooled on display ones at the Handmade Bicycle Show before, stall operators appeared used to it.
Never thought I'd see another road bike rival a Llewellyn for stroke inducing aesthetics but there you go.

I must be one of the few objective ones on RB.
I threw out objectivity for dentistry and then ornithology.

In theory Yamaha know how to make a motorcycle and a motor...so their ebike should work well. How did the MTB world turn out for KTM?

Can't believe I'm saying this about an Actofive, but that's a pass from me. Front and rear triangles don't match at all it looks like changing the font halfway through a sentence."Newly Released Front Triangles General"

The "cheap, strong, light, pick one" deal doesn't seem like a good deal at all.

Cmon man. You know as well as I do who on this forum would but one, and how much they actually ride, as opposed to talking about riding….
