Bastion Cycles

I visited Bastion Cycles yesterday.

Laser 'printed' titanium brackets, carbon fibre tubes.
Interesting process making the brackets, apparently it's possible to 'print' tool steel as well.

A couple of good YouTube videos and lots of info on their website.

Cost was a bit scary.
I was asked if I was interested in bikes, I said no but I played with motorbikes and old cars, the reply was "oh, so you already know how to waste your money...."

Interesting process, but WOW those prices! Wonder how many they sell, suppose there is always someone with plenty of cash to splash.
I'll stick to my steel framed CX bike :)

Nice, but I just bought a complete Lynskey gravel bike, shipped from the US, for about a third of their frame prices ...
