Could a private builder not make a profit if they lowered their prices to like 2500 US for a frameset?
I am -not- trying to say anything bad about their skill etc, just saying, I think a typical columbus tubeset sells -retail- for about 350 US (not sure about wholesale)?
How much time does it take a skilled builder to build that into a completed frame, and how much do they then pay wholesale for a quality paint job?
Are they shooting themselves in the foot by charging 6k etc?
