Oh, and if you think you're getting a Speedvagen with a $4k budget, I've got news for you.
agree here, I have a custom SV and although it’s easily the best bike I’ve ever had, tough to get a complete bike in that price range. You should look at their ready made, disc and maybe a rugged road which would probably fit the bill. You can generally get a ready made with all the best features of their custom bikes for around $6-$7k
