Bicycles are a great means of transport and a healthy and economical way to get around. Some are cheap, and some are not. Here we present the most expensive bicycles in the world.
Most Expensive Bicycles In The World
24K Gold Extreme Mountain Bike $1,000,000
Built by The House of Solid Gold, and named the “The Beverly Hills Edition”, this extreme mountain bike is also known as a “fat bike”. The bike is handcrafted and overlaid with pure 24K gold.
Taking over 750 hours to build, each part was coated using the electroplating process.
Only 13 of these bikes will be made. Each will feature the manufacturers emblem ‘The House of Solid Gold’ logo, “THSG” which will be embellished and encrusted with over 600 Black Diamonds (6.0 carats in total) and 500 Golden Sapphires (4.5 carats in total).
The seat is made from brown alligator skin.
Not sure if the bike comes with a warranty, so you might want to grab a copy of the ‘The Complete Bike Owner’s Manual‘
