This Is The Lotus C-01

This is C-01 number one, the first of 100 bikes to be produced. The run of 100 bikes costing £70,000 each is effectively sold out. The Lotus C-01 is uniquely styled and has a bespoke steel-trellis frame with titanium and carbon-fibre sections, its 75-degree V-twin engine is borrowed from a KTM RC8R. Every piece of welding and fabrication is breathtakingly good, the carbon-fibre wheels are a work of art, and the overall stance of the bike is so different from the norm it’s hard to know what to think.
