Just like every other new bike, it's all things to all

Probably crazy expensive and you can do just about as
much with something that cost much less. My guess is
these will be over $5k

I notice the 5 year guarantee and laugh a bit. My Titanium
Habby had a guarantee of 5 years too. Ny guess is now 8
years later it will still outlive the Basso? In 8 years
everyone slows down even he pros. You would think they would
go to Ti in retirement, I still think it is the best bike
frame.

My 1953 Raleigh was sold with a lifetime guarantee. It did
last the previous owner's lifetime, and will probably
outlive me.
What do you suppose could fail on my new old-stock Basso Loto?
No way to know. Every crash is an unique collection of chaotic forces with varying direction, load, contact points and so on plus secondary impacts.
