Company: how can we convince out of shape tech bros to spend $10k on a bicycle?

Only 10k for full suspension futuristic looking bike, that's a bargain tbh :D

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this is good, I'm just saying that bike industry is so insane that 10k for a bike wouldn't raise any eyebrows.

I'm learning a lot about how much money can be wrung out of rich idiots for some shaped aluminum and two tires.

10k? You buying second hand? You can easily spend $15k on a top tier bike these days.

Dude I haven't ridden a bike in almost 30 years.
