On the other hand, using aluminium rubber-stamps the quality. For example, Ferrari only made 99 versions of its <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/auto.ferrari.com\/en_EN\/sports-cars-models\/past-models\/275-gtb\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1964 275<\/a><\/strong> coupe in aluminium and they now sell for four times the price of a regular model. In 10 years\u2019 time a new bike made out of steel might start rusting, but you can leave our aluminium bikes for 30 years and they will stay exactly the same. It\u2019s not going to look out of date.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bujar and his brother decided to manufacture the bikes themselves after failing to find anyone who could copy their designs in aluminium: \u201cWe were only approached by old guys who used to do this back in the day. They thought they might be able to do it but not the way we wanted. They couldn\u2019t think in terms of surfaces, only in moulds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This was a line in the sand for them. The pair were adamant they needed specific designs to cope with the levels of downforce and lift their fast bikes would create \u2013 problems that manufacturers didn\u2019t have to worry about several decades ago, when bikes were much heavier and slower.<\/p>\n<p>Unable to find anyone who could bring their visions to life, the pair picked up their tools and got to work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Combining that equipment with the knowledge and skills that come with years of working with aluminium means the brothers can create bikes that are likely to be in high demand for decades to come. \u201cEverything in here is aluminium, as it\u2019s always considered to be the go-to material,\u201d Bujar points out. \u201cHowever, it\u2019s a lot [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":33642,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[219,50],"class_list":["post-33641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-microsoft-news","tag-microsoft-surface-pro","tag-recent-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33641"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33641\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sickgaming.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
