‘we had the vision of building the ultimate bicycle to go with the ultimate car; ultimate in design, workmanship and performance’ explains PG CEO manuel ostner. the bike pays homage to bugatti company founder ettore bugatti, who also designed a bike. stylistic inspiration has been drawn from ettore’s original design, whilst the choice of materials such as carbon and aluminum are deep rooted into bugatti’s existing supercars. the limited edition ride is set to retail with a huge $39,000 price tag, bringing the possibility of owning a bugatti to those who can’t fork out 2.7 M dollars for the chiron.
