oh dear........what have i started

[saltyman]

seems some folk dont get custom bike builders thesedays.......

getting mixed reviews as always on my jones, now a war of words has unfolded on my build thread on bikeradar.

some one wanted to know how much it cost, now its all kicked off.

people dont understand that im not bothered on what it cost, what it looks like, just that they cant handle why id want one, and that it cant possibly be any good with cable brakes and without suspension :roll:

interesting debate now though.

I'm about to order one of these: http://www.shandcycles.com/2010/08/15/mor-dearg/

Equally, the cost isn't the issue. It's what it does for me - and that has no price.

exactly.

custom bikes and rare Ti bike dont lose much value, compared with off the peg bikes.

yet people will go out and splash 3 or 4 grand on a full sus, then another grand a year on parts then sell them on when a new colour comes out year later for half or even a quarter of the cost.........to me thats strange,
