Roughly ,how much ?

Frame can cost more than a trials bike,10 or more years ago a workmate came back from riding & working for Foes in the states with a bike that was conservatively valued at $10k NZ but they reckoned real cost would be closer to twice that, mind you there were only 2 of those frames in existence at the time.

Forks cost that much that he had to send them back when the season was over

You'd probably be able to buy 2 monts for the price 1 of the bikes used by the top guys

Greg Minaars Honda on which he won the world downhill MTB championship:

Stunning bike, would of done anything for one of those. Shame they left the sport and never made a production version. Think Brendan Fairclough rode one as well.

Those things cost crazy money! But I think I found something a few of us can afford!

Hey Mark,

Is that what you wear when you dance in that cage, in that nightclub?

As for those bike prices...they're just as mental as the folk who ride them :stoned: !
