Description
Bastion regards its ArchAngel as the most highly specified production bike ever released—the pinnacle of design and engineering.
Its name comes from the world's first titanium-skinned aircraft, the A-12 ArchAngel, a plane capable of reaching a material-melting Mach 3. Its sleek lines and attention to detail further inspired the Melbourne-based brand - not that Bastion needs added motivation to create a bike with stunning good looks and mesmerizing finishing work.
Beyond the bike's looks, it's a numbers game. The ArchAngel is limited to a run of 88, and most of those have already gone. It takes more than 70 hours of meticulous craftsmanship to sculpt and hand finish this and every Bastion. And more than 130 machine hours, variously creating CNC parts, 3D printing and more.
