@Will, In the last several days, I have emailed Will at RBW headquarters. I have asked him about the YelloWolloy bicycle and tariffs.
As far as the pricing of the YelloWolloy for the complete bike he stated, "We're hoping for $2200, but we fell into the same trap that we did with Clems: we set out to make a cheap(er) bike but then we can't resist making parts and details a little nicer here and there and before we know it, it's a fancy bike. The completes are coming with Nitto seatposts, for instance. We'll see! -will" Tariffs: "I'm guessing they will although we'll try to keep it as minimal as possible. The 24% tariff on Japanese imports certainly hurts. -will" Kim Hetzel enjoyed the beautiful warm 67 degree spring sunshine today here in the PNW.
