Looks short, I'm sure a larger size would look a lot better.

Just on the subject of looks, existing Aurum looks better, way better. I appreciate the carbon though.

Those are 26" rims though: http://www.industrynine.net/wheels/10/26%22+Gravity#

... Odd?

I agree the current aurum looks better, but I do agree with the above statement that the cable routing is better not being on the hollow link. May be a dumb question.. But I've always wondered has anyone had any problems with the linkage pinching cables ? I think the carbon bike looks like a session and a carbon operator had a love child! Hopefully when it hits production they'll change the looks up a bit!

Never had a problem with brake line or shift cable pinching. Zip ties FTW. Plenty of clearance at the TT/ST/link junction, not that I'd want to put a finger in there while it's moving through the stroke.
