You can PM me if you want details on cost / breakdowns.
Intent here was not to sell a bike but to show off what I think is a fabulous little design and get feedback but if we spend the winter building more of these I won't have a problem with that.
Ditto on this.
Both gentlemen have been quite straightforward in discussions with me. We went through several design itterations and I QUITE LIKE the result
It took a lot of time to design and build arvon2. Arvon Stacey uses excellent materials for his builds, cuts no corners (after all he builds each one as a custom order), AND has an excellent guarantee. He builds all sorts of bikes, but has certain favourite designs because they have proven themselves in the continuous field test world of customers... OTOH, as arvon2 proves, he is quite willing to rise to a challenging order and bust his a** to make things work well. Mind you, there is a double cost involved - we all know about time and money
The only other "next order" I can think of is for a trike to be built. I have a Greenspeed GTO and wheels and kingpins for another, so someday maybe a custom built one incorporating some additional features found on other trikes
