The Reactor Aero V2 Super Bike by No22 is Finally Ready for Production. Really.

The boutique titanium manufacturer No.22 Bicycles has finally announced that its Reactor Aero V2 Super Bike is ready for production orders. After a protracted development, the frameset, featuring integrated aero design and titanium construction, will retail for over $10,000. This marks the availability of a highly anticipated, premium offering from the New York-based brand, targeting the high-end performance road market.

This production readiness comes after a considerable wait, a common occurrence with niche, high-performance cycling products that push design boundaries. No.22 has built a reputation for exquisite titanium craftsmanship, and the Reactor Aero V2 represents their ambitious foray into the aero road segment, traditionally dominated by carbon. The steep price point reflects the bespoke nature, material cost, and intricate manufacturing processes involved, positioning it as a direct competitor to other ultra-premium framesets and complete custom builds, rather than mass-produced options.

A $10,000 frameset that's "finally ready" suggests the market for exquisitely engineered, albeit delayed, titanium aero bikes remains surprisingly robust. One can only hope the ride quality justifies the patience, and the price.
