Call or email Bob Jackson or Mercian. Order bespoke bike. Travel to England. Ride in the UK, perhaps where the distill malt whisky (whiskey?). To stay within $2,000, you might have to bring a set of wheels with you.
That's both a thing and an experience. It's what I'd do, but that's me. I offer it as a suggestion. I understand you can get good bikes from makers of many nationalities, too. All youhave to do is find a location a) where you want to ride, and b) where youcan find a good custom bike builder
Congratulations on your promotion. Enjoy the rewards.
