THROWBACK THURSDAY, 2018: THE $20,000 SAGE SKYLINE

Here's a titanium custom build for all the weight weenies

If you’re looking to spend some money and want to have one of the lightest bikes out at your local riding group, you may want to check out this titanium custom build from Sage which goes for a whopping $20,000. Sage went all in with this custom build as it hits the scales at only 13.2 lbs.

The US built titanium frame is their Skyline model with a custom paint job which adds to the sheer beauty of the bike as a whole.  The weight savings are definitely found courtesy of a variety of exotic, lightweight Euro made carbon fiber components. THM parts help dramatically in keeping the weight low as you will see their product on the stem, fork, crank set and brake calibers.

Wireless Sram E-Tap adds to the clean look of the Sage as you don’t have any excess wires dangling around. The Lightweight wheels are where a good chunk of the money is at as the Meilenstein set are in the $8,000 range.

Sage says they can even get this bike to weigh a bit less with a few tricks they have up their sleeve.
