High end Land Rover FS bike ?

S-M

While i was in the LBS today i was looking at some of the bikes they have instore, they had a few Land Rover bikes in, and a frame or two hanging up, i asked one of the lads about them and he told me that somebody else makes them under licence with the LR name, i then figured they were pretty crap........

Until i saw the bike at the very end, now i never got a proper look at the spec as i had to leave, but the RRP (yes i know RRP means nothing, owned a retail business for 6.5 years) was an astonishing £4450 (may have been £4250) and it was "reduced" down to around £2250

It looked a quality bit of kit to be honest, i figured i would come home and google these LR bikes, but the only stuff i can find online so far is the cheap £200-£300 stuff.

Anybody have any ideas?

Maybe i should have asked them what model it was :roll:

I`m pretty sure it had triple clamp forks and High Roller tyres, its main colour was an off white.

It looked a bit of a downhill tank to be honest!

The top of the range Land Rover bikes were based on the Diamondback DH rigs, I seen them in the flesh at the Land Rover dealer a few years back, no they weren't selling them, but they were promoting them

One had the GBox unit too, not shabby, but just a rebadge of the 2008 DB offering.
They also had the non Gbox DH version on display too, sadly I cannot source a photo of the LR rebadge or the DB without the Gbox, but the photo below gives an idea

Ahh this makes more sense, i saw a gearbox on display in one of the locked cabinets and was wondering what it was from, the bike hanging up probably was the gearbox model, just with the box removed.
