Thank you for your comment and useful observation. Paves have an RRP of £44.99. Tubes say £5. Sorry, it should have been £99.98. Thats the RRP and I do apologise if the simple mathematics evaded you....

Good looking bike. Swap out the frame for something lighter/prettier, knock £500 off the price and boom!

Hang on, so now even you're agreeing that the cost you've given for the tyres is 'not the general price'. I understand fine what RRP means, but lfgss isn't a shop and it looks a little like you're new to selling here or just taking the piss thinking you can justify a nearly 50% profit mark up on something that's widely available at a lower price. The bike's not a 'custom build', it looks a bit like you've put some random stuff together to make a few quid and now you're pissed as it's not going to plan. Looking at the at the lack of foot retention and random frame/component/tyre choices I'm guessing you maybe don't ride fixed yourself so the forum is gonna be a particularly tough/sceptical/downright unfriendly market place to crack. Anyway, glws.
