That’s quite a premium over most titanium frames, especially from a manufacturer who hasn’t made (commissioned) one since about 1995!
They last did a titanium bike in 2008 from memory.
Like the return of the Formula name for the top end stuff. That name hasn’t been about since 1991ish. If I had that to spend my money would be going to Hope though.
Half already taken by all accounts. Yes it is a lot of money, but there will always be people paying it. Personally I think it’s stunning, but I don’t have £6k…
I do like this alpine6 in Matt black..
But if I had that money to spend I’d probably go with a HB160 or two canyon CF’s

I’d go for a Kinesis Sync but the T7 does look awesome.
I’d probably have to consider a new generation Cotic Soda with the current Soul geometry over both of these, if they were ever to produce a titanium version again.
For that kind of money on a Ti frame I would want a much nicer disk mount. It looks horrible in my eyes and I prefer them on the chainstay, not above the seatstay. Just looks a bit ‘cheap’ to me.
Strange to choose a 44mm HT when they could have gone 56/44 to allow owners the opportunity to play around with anglesets.
Also, surprised the armchair engineers on here haven’t mentioned the lack of gussets on a frame with a very slack HA….perhaps the real engineers know something they dont.
Not very classy from kingdom there imo. Trying to get publicity by slagging others off? I imagine they sell their bikes for what they can but never heard of them myself.
