First Ride: The Velduro Rogue R is an Avinox-Powered DH Fiend
Lots of fun when Northern Hemisphere folks complain about price.
I've got lots of bikes I'd like to buy that are double the price locally but you can't buy from the US directly because they won't ship.
$7200 frameset doesn't even seem that bad, if you saw what a Transition frame sells for here... Here is a good reference: https://www.specialized.com/au/en/s-works-turbo-levo-4/p/4291509?color=5467145-4291509
I read that bike as AUD$23500.00

Pinkbike Poll: What's a Deal-Breaker When Choosing a New Bike?

Pivot Cycles Announces "Premier" Lifetime Warranty & Courtesy Bearing Replacement Program
@wtbdh: I'll bite... a "VF commy" is a reference to an Australian muscle car, a Holden Commodore. He's implying that the smell of burning rubber is like someone just did a large burnout.

Never mind those cute little displays they like to place on the bars ready to get smashed. I'm sure they are cheap, quick and easy to replace...
