Aston Martin One 77 Road Bike

What is the most sought-after bicycle in the world? Well, that depends on who you're asking. We think we have some drool-worthy bikes at our shop in Downey, but one recent contender can not be found at a local retailer.
Luxury sports car manufacturer Aston Martin is partnering with Factor Bikes to introduce the bicycle version of their One 77.

The One 77 (the bike), being lauded as "the world's most technologically advanced road bicycle" brings elements of the exclusive Aston Martin One 77 car to the world of cycling, such as its construction from its unique ultra light-weight carbon fiber composite, its super advanced computer system, and the fine details you might expect from a bike called One 77 such as hand-stitched leather handlebars. The One 77 is outfitted with Shimano Dura-Ace components.
Like the car, only seventy-seven One 77 will be manufactured. The cars have all sold, with one reportedly crashing in Hong Kong last month, so even if you missed the boat, you may still have the chance to own a One 77...for around $40,000, that is.
