Your question prompted me to go look at those fenders again. Clicking through to the Flickr page opened up a lot of pictures of that bike and more. I see that bike is available for $6800, and my first thought was that it is $5000 overpriced. that was until I looked at more of the pictures. All I can say is, "Wow!" Every bike there is spectacular, phenomenal. They have "MAP" on the downtubes, so I googled MAP bikes and found bike builder Mitch Pryor. I now think $6800 is very fair, and if I was a man of means I'd be all over a randonneuse with all the options.

By the way, it looks from the pictures that he fabricates those lovely fenders.
