    Anyone else come across these? Posh bikes from one of our own. Pretty cool idea. And I must say I really like the name.

    Looks like they're being pitched at the higher end of the market. Rothmans connection is left of field in this day and age, but as a motor racing fan, I love it. Like Lenny's Gulf liveried BMC.

    Would be great to see them do well. Wonder what the prices will be like. :)

    Painted and finished by hand, each to its owner’s unique design, to the highest of standards.

    Sounds nice...expensive but nice. I can only wish them well as an Irish business.

    As long as their grandmother is on boards, that's OK.

    The Camero just needs a small white stripe to be the boards bike

    Yeah Turas' are fine bikes too. I've seen a few of em on the road. As coincidence would have it I saw lad tonight on a "fifty one". Not sure which model it was. Had an aero look to it and a black and red paint job. - Nice machine.
