worth noting the Nexus 7 coaster brake option is the lowest/cheapest complete Bullitt so you could get a new one for £2535 although it is special order from Denmark only

Deore 20 spd is £2860

On the continent the rule of thumb for selling a 2nd hand Bullitt seems to be €1k off of rrp almost regardless of use

Hope this helps

yes

This is probably not what you're after but I have a 2019 58cm Kepler Disc frameset I'm selling in really good condition

I believe the production costs of going for various colours and sizes in the WiFi vs only one colour one size in the Classic is part of the reason for the difference, plus the frame details on the WiFi are impressive, things like the curved seatstay bridge look very nice.

Considering the price of literally everything in the bike world has gone up this year, Omnium's idea of bringing out the 'Classic' option to keep costs down is pretty smart.

Comparably LvsH have increased their prices across the board by 10%, as have a lot of brands, the Classic is essentially the same pricing as their bikes used to be whereas the WiFi models are more expensive but have added value.

I might be wrong but I do think it's a justifiable price difference. If you want some Omnium parts drop me a message, we order from them pretty regularly and you can buy wheelsets and racks separately.

Here’s a blog post that hopefully helps everyone looking at getting an Omnium understand the changes to their range made this year and which options have WiFi and Classic models

I'm 6ft and I went for a large on the new geo, it's a bit more of a stretch than my usual 56cm Kepler but having now tried a medium, I think I went for the right size as I feel less cramped.
If you're 6'2" then I think you should be a large even with short legs.

If you get the right box you can carry two kids in a bullitt easy, I've carried an adult and a child so unless you're carrying two massive kids I don't think you'd have an issue. Plus Bullitt have good UK stock

I've seen some people mount their dynamo lights to the fork on Omniums, partly because it means it won't interfere with your cargo but also I think it looks neater, not sure exactly how they mount them though as they seem to be held on part way down the fork blade. When I see an example I'll send it over

Omnium say May/June which should mean pre orders go live May for June shipping, which if you’re in the UK means your Dealer will probably get it around July time

We got a few WiFi Cargo framekits and completes in various sizes and colours as we can definitely use the groupsets with other projects if people just want framekits.

Plus a handful of Classic Mini and Classic Mini Variant completes on their way, we’ve got some Cargo frames we can build up if people want Minis as frames

Bullitt stock is decent at the moment except for EP8, unless you don’t mind what colour you have in which case you may get one before June

As others have mentioned though yeah Brexit has caused some major delays, we had an eBullitt shipped from Cph on December 14th arrived with UK Customs on Dec 17th and the bike didn’t arrive with us until mid February thanks to slow processing at Customs, it does seem to be getting marginally better as we progress through the year though

to be fair I think of this release the WiFi Cargo and Classic Mini completes will sell out really fast (last time is was within an hour) but variant frame kits should be around a while, maybe see if your local Omnium dealer is looking to get one in, or drop me a message if I can help

yeah only 162cm long and they still have decent weight capacity of 125kg overall (including rider)

37mm with mudguards is the official spec, I’ve fitted 38s pretty easy

The completes are £1620 so I imagine based on the framekit/complete price difference on a Mini Max it’d be about £700ish for the classic mini framekit

The mini variant only comes in Classic at the moment I believe, we can order that though

Heads up that Omnium pre orders for WiFi Cargo and Classic Mini and Mini Variant go live at 9am tomorrow morning if anyone’s after anything

I don't understand their logic though because you can get a brand new one from any UK dealer in most colours within about 10 days? There was a shortage but there definitely isn't now, unless you want EP8.

This is better as you’re basically getting the alu box for free (Nexus 7 has a coaster brake and that set up is £2500 ish new)

Ah sorry, that was sarcasm, it’s not limited edition or special, I was just pointing out he’d messed up the name on the decals of his strangely priced 3rd hand Bullitt

I was thinking this trying to work out where he got that price from ha.

It's 3rd hand and to buy one brand new including the accessories he has on there would be £3500ish

I mean they hold their value but I think he's a touch off the mark

EDIT ah I see now, if you check the chainstay you can see it's a limited edition 'Harry vs Larry'

Which Soma model is this? Looks so rad, looking at getting them in ourselves. How does it handle? Have you ever ridden an Omnium Mini comparatively?

Might have a part-ex 55cm dark (smoke I think?) Mash work frameset which we'd just be recovering the £600 it'd owe us for coming in, we're in Bournemouth so collection or + postage

Nothing wrong with Babboe, personally I have not got a huge amount of experience with them but I do know they’re pretty heavy.

The thing is any decent pedal assist motor is £1700-2000 and most decent non electric cargo bikes are £2500ish

I’m sure there’s something out there though, to be fair the Ridgeback e8000 cargo bike looks pretty cool, not sure who’s stocking it though

Unfortunately sub £4k and you're in the Babboe, Radwagon, Ridgeback price bracket for eCargo

Is it your budget or C2W that is limiting the spend? Maybe go non electric and get a Bullitt?

epic purchase! Showed it to our mechanic with over 25 years experience yesterday and he said he’d never seen a stag front mech in real life, the original MTB groupset, amazing

Also apparently the stag rear mech has a plate that splits on the back allowing easier roadside chain fitting
