Need a tractor? For a limited time, fans can bid on a fully-restored 1964 Lamborghini 1R Tractor. With an estimated price of $18,000 – $22,000, the tractor gives fans a much more affordable way to buy into the family. Its bright blue and orange body boasts an odometer with just 2,727 miles, and a 1½-liter twin-cylinder air-cooled diesel engine that can produce 26 horsepower. The tractor marks an important point in the Lamborghini history, which began by supplying a wide range of reliable tractors to Italian farmers, well before they released their first sports car. Fans can bid on the tractor for three more days, and read on to learn how Ferruccio Lamborghini’s Ferrari 250 GT and family-owned tractor factory paved the way for every supercar to come here.

FORGE+BOND’s Thermoplastic Carbon Fiber Can Be Used Forever
FORGE+BONDFORGE+BOND describes itself as a ‘new kind of company,’ one that takes a ‘responsibility-first approach to manufacturing thermoplastic carbon fiber bicycle wheels and accessories.’ What does this mean? Essentially the brand has developed a proprietary material that replaces the brittle, toxic epoxies found in traditional carbon fiber products with long-chain nylon polymers. As a result, FORGE+BOND’s products can achieve a truly circular life cycle – i.e. they can be made, recycled and re-made literally forever. The brand is launching enduro mountain biking wheels (F+B 30 EM 29” Wheel) and gravel wheels (F+B 25 GR 700c Wheel), which fans can shop today.
