Oh, yes, Lamborghini even built bicycles at a time.
On the 1979 Frankfurt Motor Show, Automobili Lamborghini SpA unveiled a rather special bicycle, it wasn't built in Italy,
but in Germany by Lamborghini Bike International.
This two-wheeler was very well built, using Titanium wherever possible, combined with expensive Magnesium and Polyester,
all this added up to a weight of only 6.5 Kg.
The Lamborghini bicycle was built on special order only, at a cost of 7,000 DM at the time, but the production run was
to be limited at only 500 units.
Before the bicycle was delivered, the actual customer's name was engraved into the frame. Note that the very first one
was ordered by Herbert von Karajan.

I've found this image of a more recent Bike which carries the Lamborghini name.
This specific bike uses front and rear suspension and is available for about £3,000 to
£3,500 sterling. At this price you are sure to get a rare bike, which for the moment
is only built on demand to keep production numbers low.
It was shown during an UK based motorshow during 1999, I don't have any further information
or production numbers on this recent bike.
