What sort of person would pay £3,900 for a bike that looks fucking hideous?

A question:
Arkose SS I have a rear mech hanger.
Can someone explain, slowly, what I need to do regarding bottom brackets?are there different inserts that stop it being eccentric?

@Chalfie I wondered this too. Also have an Arkose SS that I'm about to turn into geared cx bike.
I dont think theres a different bb insert. Not that I've found anyway.
I'm going to rotate the insert to the point that its at when running single speed and just do up the bolts and see how it goes. -

IDK I’m just copying what’s on the road.cc review
Priced from £1,000 to £3,900
But yeah it would have to do the pedalling for you for that money

Set the bb position to wherever it is most comfortable, probably lowest and in-line with the seat tube?
I don’t think you can de eccentricise it :)

What’s wrong with converting to black and white like everyone else?

That is very nice, but it’s a nice bike, so allowed.

Why are the cage mounts on the front edge of the fork? Wouldn't a bottle mounted there foul the wheel?
Maybe it's the build, but it looks a bit of a pig. Yours was nicer.
