As you've noticed, high-end stepthroughs not electric are very hard to find, so niche that the ones that do it can charge what they want. The only one I found is from Falkenjagd, but that's a...

Being perfectionist in today's supply situation is also the best way to never have a bike. Bikes are evolutive machines, focusing on the frame is probably the best strategy, as you can always change...
