Yeah totally understand there must be 100s of hours in R&D behind each of these sorts of products and that those costs need to be built into the selling price. I guess volumes are low, so proportionally, the R&D costs end up being quite high. Regardless, its all way too pricey for me.

He's got some videos on youtube which explains some of it. The numbers don't make sense to me. From what I could gather I think he wants everyone to ride short upright bikes. My current trail bike is spot on based on his RAD dimension, but it feels a bit short and cramped - I can ride it fine...
I cant pick a favourite ride, but a particularly memorable one was when we did a family holiday in the south island of NZ. When visiting Dunedin, I hired a spec stumpjumper with all the bling and headed up signal hill to try out their downhill/enduro tracks. I thought I was a good rider who had...
