Bombadil in 2008 was $2,000, now $3,500 as a semi-custom. Makes sound used framesets pretty attractive.
-----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bruce Herbitter Sent: Saturday, December 14, 2013 9:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [RBW] What deals they were! I was using the time between sets of push ups (too yucky out to pedal today) and cruising the RBW web site this morning. Looking at the framesets, I see where Atlantis is now 2,300 F.O.B. origin. When I bought my Ram in late 2006, it was 1,350 and the Atlantis was only $1,400. Using the AIER cost of living calculator, 1400 in 2006 is worth 1,618 today, so frames have gone up significantly more than the prices of everyday goods as a whole. This is not to say they cost too much now, just a realization that those of us who were fortunate enough to get RBW bikes back then got really good deals on really good bikes.
