Those are definitely good use cases, yup. There are a few things I can do to increase the value of this part (or similar ones), and in general the high end cycling market tends to require a lot of 1) lightweight structures, which additive is good for, and 2) customization. It's also worth thinking about this in context: Even without offering any customization, the cost to buy my part in batches of ~40 actually works out pretty well (caveat: this is a decidedly high end bike part). With forged, machined, and composite parts, that's an extremely low purchase quantity; in most cases, you'd never come close to amortizing the tooling & setup time. That said, I'm definitely interested in exploring other products, and new business models for how to sell them. This part is just the first step in that process :)
