Audi Single Speed?
Being the bike guy at work, my boss just asked me if I knew anything about this bike that he saw. All I find on the web is a fuzzy picture from the Audi owner’s club. Anyone know about this bike?

Back in 2015, Audi partnered with Lightweight for a limited-run of 50 super-light and ultra-expensive "Audi Sport Racing BIkes," which cost just shy of $20k.
So unless Audi has fallen on really hard times, I'm gonna say that's any of a dozen "white fixie + red wheels" with an Audi logo on the downtube.

This bike is a long way from $20K. It’s $562.

I gonna say this is likely a Solé el Tigre with an Audi Logo. Currently on sale direct from Solé for $275. Comes in a whole range of colors.

Sole does a lot of these for different companies. Here near Chicago, they did some for Goose Island and they pop up often.

If I were to ever buy an Audi if I saw that as their advertising bike I would walk right out. "High end" cars with a super cheap single speed is a huge turn off. Now if they had that Porcelain Festka I might consider one but then again not really an Audi person.
Isn't Sole the company with the guy jumping to his death as their logo?
