    The Confederate website now has a vid of the running prototype, the running version is nowhere as clean and pure as the render....surprise, surprise.

    Actually speaking of surprised; one of the builders in the workshop on the video is pleasantly surprised the suspension works and points out several times as the guy rides it down the road 'look! you can see the suspension working!"
    Seems that 'pre-production' testing consists of bouncing the front forks and riding around the block. Sweet, lets build 120 of them.

    Just in case both my soul and Satan exist, I'd like the second to know he can have the first, in exchange for one of these bikes.


    I'm no work of art. Be nice to ride one.
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

    Who the fuck is going to buy a half built bike?
    Political correctness: a doctrine which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd from the clean end.

    What do you expect when an American builds a bike.
