This is so cool, a DH bike that actually makes sense for most people
Well besides the price, which is 3-4 times too much for most 🤣

At least it's not 10x too much?
I do have to wonder who actually buys this stuff at MSRP though.

I've seen some s-works levos configured as city bikes. There's a small population of people who buy the most expensive thing without thinking of what it's for
