    I was hoping there would be a £1-2k bike in there.
    Entry level lol okay ….

    3k isn't an entry level price what so ever. Most people are best of running aluminum, especially as an entry to the sport. True entry level bikes cost around 1k and are build with a tiagra, a grx 400, sram apex, or if your budget is a bit lower, a sora. Saying 3k is entry level is insaaaane.

    The Lauf Seigla Core wireless with SRAM Rival is also right at $3K. Go with a rigid fork Hard and its $350 lower hard to go wrong at that price

    It is crazy the prices bikes have risen to, nobody can justify the value of the actual bike to its retail price. The same thing happens with lots of desirable brands now, to the point where all reality is lost. How can a bicycle designed for the amateur rider cost more than a motor bike.

    For the revolt. I wonder if a creative person could 3d print an insert that could change the rear axle insert for a single speed compatible amount of adjustment. Just putting that out there for someone with the knowledge and skill set to pull it off. Cause that’s definitely not me. I’m just the idea man.
