Would you ride it? Or just hang it on the wall? And what does it weigh?

Re:

I wonder if the seller does a postage discount if I buy 2 of them??



I see the proceeds go to charity, so probably just needs some Hollywood celebrity to snap it up, would probably be better off selling it through one of those Hollywood stars fundraising auctions though I would have thought?

The fun fact is, it "only" has an XT shifter on there...would have expected something top range....lol ( they could have installed an ACROS A-GE, at least you could gold plate that )

Re:

All the proceeds go to Scientology, not charity. It was up for $1 million so even the rich, celebrity idiot followers of the cult had enough sense to realise it's a shitty bike with a silly price.

Hideous pretty apt considering the "cause".

They should just pore a bucket of ice water over it...LOL

Re:

The saddle looks like it was torn off a black rhino's pride and joy. Maybe £5k's worth of gold, £2k bike and the rest to fund an alien take over :facepalm:

Not a bad mark up that, when you factor in the cost of the bike, £300 ish for the plating kit off ebay & few evenings work.
