THE NOISELESS CHAINLESS BRONCO SAFETY BICYCLE.
A Bronco that sold at a Copake auction in October 2022 for $44,000. Add in buyers premium too.
So we can only confirm this trend, in which really rare and original historical bikes are constantly increasing their value and selling price. We know of only five extant specimens.
