Where did he dream this price up from?
« on: November 29, 2014, 12:12 PM »
I have a soft spot for the Humble Burner from bitd but am struggling to see how he came up with this price? Re-pop parts etc and theres no way that the list of parts comes close to that amount? So without bashing the humble burner what are you views on an actual price?  ???

Fook the people pushing the prices up on ebay,I'd hate to have to build a whole bike through ebay.
