I appreciate where you are coming from, but what size do you put your money on?
I guess you could do one each of 53/54/55/56/57, but what are the odds on selling them all?
This is the sort of thing that a larger organisation that is better capitalised could take on- we're too small, as the cost of the frametubes and braze would be circa 2/3k.
Also, marketing (good marketing, that is) is not cheap.
We're trying to come up with stuff that gets into the blogs etc instead of paying for advertising.
EDIT to add- the costs for that are probably similar, but we get to make cool stuff rather than just paying Google/etc
