Equilibrium Elysion - another 3D + carbon + Ti option

I think Mr Balahovskis is one of the more creative builders working today. He has combined metal + carbon in the past but his new model adds some good looking 3D printed bits. He has some more detailed shots on a recent Instagram post.

One surprise is seeing a carbon fork. When teasing the new model + with high-end peers iike Bastion, Firefly, Legend, Sturdy going for a Ti fork, was expecting to see one here on the reveal too.

One strike! Guess it is inevitable but I wish folks would skip the full-internal routing. Being full-custom, you would hope one could spec traditional routing for the brakes?

Beautiful looking bike.

Appears to be somewhat influenced by both Bastion and Prova.

Expensive for sure.
Pricing on similar (ie Bastion and Prova) I think are in the same ballpark.
Domestically, the No 22 Aurora (with the carbon seatmast but no 3D printed lugs) would be $8,899 with custom geo and full internal routing.
