On $1500 bike that's $15 per (0.01) fall.
That makes the 0.47 come to a $705 difference from currency alone.
They say they are gearing up production , so I don't think scarcity will be an issue.
May not be VolksVelo but, I may be able to afford titanium, after all.
i guess if you wait till october 31 you can have better deals.
if no deal prevails, the uk economy will collapses and may fall 8%.
so, huge disconts and deals are expexted, to keep the economy running.
