Each will be custom in that they will have a rider-chosen seat tube and top tube length (within the 54-58cm range) and each will have the opportunity to add custom MAP handlebar bag rack or small rear rack as part of the package. There will be a few other options in terms of braze-on placement and paint, but the heart and soul will remain the same. Light weight standard diameter tubing, proven rando geometry, and clearance for big 650B tires.
There are a lot of details to go over in terms of the build possibilities and packages, geometry, paint options, etc. that I am not going to go into here and now, but for any interested parties, head over to http://www.mapbicycles.com/news.html and come January, I'll provide all the details about just what this bike is and what it is not and how you can get one. Cost for a the frame and fork with single color finish will start at $2000.
For now, have a look at the prototype to get an idea of where this is going.

the prototype is beautiful--nice proportions
throughout. the thoughtfulness you apply
to both form and function continues to impress.
consider one of the five sold. i anticipate spring
2010 to be marked with some wonderful rides,
I can't wait to experience 650-b wheels with
the big hetra tires--funfunfun.
Amazing. Is it possible to reserve one?
Thank you Jrdn, I think you'll be pleased..
