To conquer sports peaks there is everything: speed sensors, angles of descent and ascent. Also, special biometric sensors are built into the bicycle, which can tell you about the body temperature of the bicyclist, his pulse and the frequency of breathing. In general, the ideal model for athletes and those who can afford the most expensive bike.

For those who are more accustomed to luxury and chic, we recommend the Montante Luxury Gold Collection. It costs 46 thousand dollars. And this price is justified by the fact that the frame covers 24-fold gold, more than ten thousand Swarovski crystals, as well as the python skin, which is covered by the steering wheel and seat.

Fans of retro-style will approach the most expensive in the world bicycle, released in the late 19 th century. Its manufacturer was the company Tiffany & Co, and the cost was 50 thousand dollars.
