I saw one cheaper that appeared to be really good, the Amigo from TW-Bents (Taiwan company), but there are zero distributors of it in the US.
Is $5000 par of the course?
Don't listen to these people! There is nothing less than $5000 available in the bent world. I have a lovely slightly used BikeE CT that I will part with for $3500 - just as a favour for a BF member....
