- group one believes Peter is mad, has no clue what he is doing, the whole thing is fake, the bike is way too cheap to become real and it never will.
- group two believes Peter may have been naive to a degree in the beginning but learned and learns his lesson and that - if the Helix will become reality - prices will have to go up
- group three believes Peter did his math and, while the Helix is cheap for a Ti-folder, it will work out and the price is the result of clever production and part of a marketing strategy and we defintively do not know enough about his business calculation to be able to judge.

Until now not one single person has changed it's group driven by the discussion about pricing in this thread as far as I can judge. So overall the discussion seems a bit pointless and it seems even more pointless to start it again from scratch. Worth noticing is for once that there seems to be no group that considers the Helix to be too expensive and secondly that group one seems to loose the ground they are standing on, based on the latest news from Helix.
berlinonaut, incisive as ever but where would opinion forums be if people started not sharing their opinons just because they were insufficiently informed, their arguments had been made before and/or they make not a jot of difference to other's opinions?
