That would be a hell of a bike to wash after a muddy ride

wow, good call

Talk about the ultimate in easy cable roughting!!!

Lookes like you would be Rideing a Frikin Doiley Its a Chick bike LOL Just Kidding

when you get some mud inside that it would be twice as heavy

Just put some saran wrap around the outside, how much does the whole bike weigh?

I could see sticks and twigs getting cough in that fancy "isotruss" stuff.

I thought it was a killer skull n crossbones pattern when I first looked at it. Now I just can't picture washing dirt out(?) of that bike. Wierd.

A good blast from a hose should clear out the tubes. Lizard Skins is making special 1 mm thick covers for those who are concerned.

I get the feeling this is more of a proof-of-concept item than anything destined for heavy production (what with the price and all). Maybe we'll see this tube style used on down-tubes only to maximize the benefits (stiffness to weight ratio and damage tolerance) and keep the cost down.
