+1 Compared to other new bikes, a pretty decent deal. Comparing to vintage bikes is not a fair comparison, BUT, this is a vintage and classic forum. Right now, you can find a nice vintage touring bike complete at or below this price point (and the VO bike is not complete). And of course, I do not buy any bicycles new (or cars, houses, etc.).
+1 Used market is inefficient, which causes some good to excellent deals out there.
Always good to see someone wade in and produce a modern bike with some vintage characteristics!
