    realized price
    EUR 30,000

    Crikey! That's nearly twice what Moser's hour record bike got!

    Wonder if Chdot will turn up at PY with an extra shiny Moulton...

    Only (probably) titanium Moulton in the world, hence extra shiny! About three times the price of a new steel version, saving 500g...

    Really really interesting reading (especially seeing how (relatively) affordable some of them were. The Cyclopedia app that I think was based on that book was the first one I put on my iPad when I first got it. Still occasionally go in for a gawp at the shiny.
