I dont get it. Im a downhill biker and you can get a pretty serious bike for 1500. This doesnt have hydraulic brakes, any suspension, shifters, etc. What makes it cost over 2000 to build? Im not putting down this bike but just curious how a bike with such minimal need for parts cost so much.
Some helpful community... My genuine question gets downvoted, I get insulted and basically told to go away and no one even attempts to provide any sort of helpful response. Today I learned that BMX bikers are douchebags.
The main reason they sell parts for such a high price is because they can. Supply and Demand. People are willing to pay high prices on parts because they cant find them for cheaper unless you buy used.
axemen ur a fuckin douche he said in his comment that he wasnt putting bmxers down or this bike and because of ur lack of intellegence you made all bmxers look like douchebags like trspanache said so fuck you!!!
bmx bikes are worth shit compared to a downhill rig. with all top of the line parts a bmx bike can top about $2500 at most. a fully custom downhill bike with all top of the line parts will easily tip scales at ten grand if not alot more.
CrMo steel
cnc machined aluminum
precision machined parts
they are expensive for the same reason anything is expensive.
because it is expensive to make if it is made well. mountain bikes are more expensive because of more parts that have to be made well.
2 things......#1 ...... this is the sexiest bike i have ever seen!!! ....and #2......Im wondering how you got your bike to stand without anything helping it
this bike is so sick, i road with this guy, he's a really good rider, sad to see him sell his bike, also wish i had the 1500 to buy it, its such a solid bike and he did spend way over 2 grand building it from scratch.
