So the ZAR exchange rate isn't an excuse here, yet the pricing is very "continental". What am I missing? Natural collusion? Market indicating pricing loud and clear?

Why is the ZAR rate not relevant? I'd guess mostly euro/dollar based inputs to produce + smaller volume production = fairly pricey result.

Do not think it is so expensive compaired to a Scalpel2. @ R63 500 without carbon hoops.

 

Please show pictures of the gloss white and matt charcoal, for us that is a bit reserved on colour.

 

Not that I can afford, but one can dream.

I think the ZAR/$ plays a huge role. Frame is manufactured in Taiwan, all the components come from Asia as well. R&D and building is local. And they most definitely don't manufacture the same volume as the big boys, so they can't leverage on scale either.

I think its time people start supporting this awesome brand, yes its expensive but its a top of the range bike, not everyone will be able to afford it but its so often the same people moaning that its so expensive that are the people riding the carbon copy S-WORKS .
