I dropped 10k building out my forever touring/commuter bike, but only 1600 of it was the frame. The rest was all higher end components.

Then it got folded around the front end of a car, along with myself. Now it's over 12k since I had to replace the frame and few other bits and bobs. Thankfully I had good insurance, otherwise after the hospital stay and recovery it'd be closer to $500,000 because America.

But fast it aint. Pretty though.
