the D3o stuff is ridiculously expensive. that would be like a $300-500 jersey.

im thinking brake cables that run through the frame i know its been done as a custom modification but who cares; i dont know a many teachers who would know that

look at the transition TR450. they run the rear derailleur cable through the rear triangle. pretty sweet idea so the cable doent wear as fast or get caught on anything

umm someone told me at my local skate park e13 was designing it but havent heard anything else on it so dont know if its true but pedals that spring back to being flat when theres no prssure on them like youll still be able to ride and move the pedals around and stuff but once your feet are off they become back to normal/flat so there is way less leg gouges/cuts
i saw that in a magazine too....i think?

Its also decently common for road bikes in an effort to keep a streamlined bike.

Rumor. Our pedals will just be extremely light, extremely simple, and just plain work. Plus I handle tech support...should you ever need it. tup

Pedals should be out in a few months...we're just getting all the chainguides up to speed first.

i thought i saw in a mag like a year ago that they would have some type of adjustability on the amount they would spin

let alone the fact that orange and cannondale have been doing it since 2005 (possibly even earlier).

Yep, adjustable spin control and a special bushing design. They should be pretty slick when they're done. My pedals on my 4x rig have no pins left... Cry
