Why would it be?*

1. Dear foffabikes,
   
   

Average cost of OTP ss as parts = 50% higher then unit cost.Apply same logic and your offering should be £180 - £200.Or for same money buy s better speced (by a very long margin) OTP.QED

1. *Dear yanuf,
   
   

You might want to speak to the Brick Lane Bikes people to find out how much they charge for custom built bikes.
I think you can appreciate that bespoke bikes will always be more expensive than factory-made OTP + our bikes are made mostly of new components anyway, our frames are powder-coated (only that costs 70 pounds) and come with a 12 months warranty so I don’t really get why people tend to think that we are making a huge margin.*

5.Dear foffabikes,

Not saying that you are making a huge margin, just that your price point for what you offering is way off.

Dear yanuf,
*If you can get a newly refurbished ss bike for less by all means let me know.

1. That's my point: I can get a much (much) better spec OTP for the same as your "newly refurbed".
