Yeah I remember seeing some spy shots of that proto and drooling. Maybe when it's released the industry will stop the standard diarrhea so I can finally buy a bike.

btw. Is Cesar still present on RM?
I follow up on you guys! Thanks for the very kind words!

Keep up the good work. I follow you and Cero Design on FB and it looks like you have created an amazing company. I'm envious of anyone working there. Keep up the good work. It's rare to see a bike related company that has all of it's processess dialed from production to marketing.

In hell. Welcome!
No comments yet about the visual appearance giving subtle hints of possible loss of straight geometry when under stresses caused by heavy loads in extreme cornering situations?

Thanks a lot! Not been easy, but we are loving every single moment going on in here, a dream come true!

If you ever need a test rider to thrash one of your bikes properly in the North Carolina hills, you know where I'm at :D
Haha! You want to take the fun part from us???

Looks cool forward GEO on all the bikes?
Won't call it forward, but yeah ALL have a modern geometry, all bikes have the same effective reach (reach + stem lenght), not like most that are all totally different, but we will be leaking more details soon, so keep up with our facebook page for that

Pretty cool, like a dream factory.
Props for using a made in Oxnard, Ca CNC over in Espana.
But damn man, take the plastic wrap off the control panel!
haha! I know, but we wanted to keep it a bit clean, but you're right... Will take it soon and make a pic for you :D

Haas mills... quality! Is that a VF4?
It's a VF5, now in May we are getting a 5 axis Hermle C400, so we will be able to do all links in only 1 stack for higher precission! :D

Sponsel called this as early as 2013 in his crankbrothers piece:



"After color-anodizing all of my stem bolts, headset spacers, my seatpost clamp, and my pedals in the same cardinal red color swatch, I realized that I just had to have the new Iodine wheels from Crankbrothers. (...) I need to know that nobody who's making working class money can afford to run the same wheels as me, and Crankbrothers gave me that confidence."

Criminy, leave it to a simian lizard to rock that fucking lapel style and mid-70's fat tie...wait a minute..."fat tie" sounds an awful lot like "fat tire" :o

Haas mills... quality!

Mutually exclusive statements. Haas has done a great job of keeping manufacturing in the US, and builds a machine that is more than capable for a lot of applications, but by no means is a high quality machine. And lets not forget that Mr. Haas went to prison for a few years for some pretty sketchy business practices. Word on the street is he has done much worse than what he got caught doing.

Haas is fine for aluminum, once you start machining ferrous materials and superalloys they struggle... but to be fair, Haas doesn't claim they are great at those materials.

Quality CNC? Old Mori Seikis... they were beasts.

Interesting, I was not aware. My experience is almost 20 years old now. Will look into ^^^

Also very important to us was to make something super exclusive, that means super expensive, but no detail is forgotten.

Well. Thank god for that. 10k bikes just seemed so......you know.......'common'


Anybody else getting delorean flashbacks? (look it up kids)

I need this perfectly tuned flex profile for maximum traction to crush my strava time at the local IMBA loop on my 6" travel enduro bike. That's why I opted for the $6k frame instead of the $3500 trek.

These bikes are absolutely gorgeous and no doubt perform extremely well, but you have to ask, unless you are already a competitive pro, is that T1000 going to help?
