Just my annual WTB post looking for a hunq. I almost had one last year, but then got the opportunity to get an Ebisu. But the heart wants what the heart wants!

Thanks Jake. This one is, to my knowledge in fact real. But it’s actually a 650b version and I was after a 700c. But thanks for sending!

Oh man, I have a 62cm Hunqapillar, but I'd kill for it to be in 650b. Then you can run the Ultradynamico Red Mars!!!

I don't know what your budget is, but you might consider asking Grant he could build one for you as a custom.  I tried that once when looking unsuccessfully for an All Rounder; he agreed to the idea in principle, but said he'd want to make some changes to the design before he'd give a final OK.  Round about that time I found an actual AR, so the idea never went any further.
All the best,

I thought customs had been dropped. That being said, you could ask Grant. Never hurts to ask

That’s good to know they have opened customs again. 

Worth mentioning I am also looking for a 56 Rambouillet!

I know of two Rambouillets currently for sale, but one (https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/bik/d/san-francisco-rivendell-rambouillet/7841199503.html) is a 54 and the other (https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1287234005681339/?ref=category_feed&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post) is a 60.  The 54 could probably be made to work.  You might also try a Homer; I think they're roughly the same bike (although I stand to be corrected here).
The Rams show up in various fora from time to time; it wouldn't hurt to post an ISO note on this one and see if anything shakes loose.
All the best,
Kevin

Thanks for these! I’m definitely a 56 in the ram though.
