Here are your 600€ complete titanium pedals for DH (clicking on pedale will take you to the list of pedals where intended use is specified). It seems there is no importer for the states but if you want them you will get themSmile The converted price is 653.7 US$.

edit1: Pretty much we need people from Germany to find us the most expensive stuff their companies produce, they make waaay more crazy high end stuff compared to anyone else in the world

edit2:Across has hydraulic mech/shifter for about 800€ but it is medium/long cage so not trully dh oriented. In this regard you can throw Di2 on... Leave it for next time as we build trail bike :D

edit3: Spokes, DT aerolite?

Making it more expensive with practical parts
Pillar X-TRA Lite Ti - $9 per spoke, so $9x 64
Schmolke MTB Lowriser DH- $336
Schmolke Seatpost TLO- $500
Carbon Ti seatclamp -$70
Carbon Ti X-Maxle 12 x 150- $90
Carbon Ti Carbon Disk rotor - $190 (although there is something called carbon disc and brake pads for full carbon disc but this is more expensive)
PROLOGO Zero C3 Nack Saddle- $334
Best and most expensive brakes out there is HOPE M6(yes six pots) as they are out of production, you can get a collectors set for just about $1500

And FYI, I'm going to use US MSRP to keep this consistent.
FSA Crankset is not compatible

Chris King hubs with Ceramic bearings are way more MSRP than DT 240s.

Don't forget the direct mount chainring for the SixC cranks from Wolf Tooth / One Up / Absolute Black

Oh yah, I'm pretty sure you could program XTR Di2 shifter/derailleur for 7 shifts on the X01 DH cassette...


And ceramic bearing BB

Could do a Wipperman Ti Chain too if your going ultra bling @ $300

Is the BOS an air spring? If not add $300 for a Ti fork spring
Added the spokes, nips and saddle to the build. Good stuff.

I couldn't find an 11-speed Wippermann Ti chain, but I found one more expensive than the KMC so I added that. If you find a specific narrow/wide/oval whatever chainring and the chain you mentioned post up the specs and prices and I'll add them.

BOS is air, btw.

I believe the E.13 LG1r chainguide is more expensive than the mrp! According to CRC and usd conversion, rrp should be $276.80. Research the rrp more if you like, but even if it falls $50 short its still significantly pricier than MRP!

Please do, it is helpful. I'll remove the Procore system for now.

A few of those items are either already on the build list of there's more expensive parts named.

I'll add the housing set and DM chainring.

And I'll remove the Ergon grips as two people have already mentioned them.

eleven six doesn't come in 2.75 as far as I know so I don't think you can realistically count that.

Bummer! Just got off the phone with PUSH to confirm they don't offer it at this time. That was a big money item. Now we need to find the most expensive alternative.

This crank is rated for everything except downhill. But since this is a race bike, does it still get in?

Do they make a push industries shock long enough for the session? If they do those are like $1,200. Also I don't think the procore system is in there yet.

BOS once again wins for suspension it seems.

$700 MSRP for BOS Stoy. Add a titanium coil and that's another $200

You could toss in a few more dollars and pump up your tires with some nitrogen or helium.
