First Look: 5DEV's Titanium Chainring Promises 3x the Durability
Certainly a good idea vs Alloy (warm butter) rings. They need a direct mount Hyperglide 12+ configuration.

Burning Question: Why Are So Many Bike Manufacturers Putting Cables Through the Headset?
Since the very first internal Colnago and Klein bikes I worked on 28 years ago, INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING IS THE WORST THING in the bike game. It serves no purpose other than aesthetics. Yes, I have all the magnet do-hickies and string theories, but even with proper internal ports i.e. Santa Cruz sh!t can and will go south and cost needless amounts of time! Not to mention sometimes sh!t has to be worked on the trail or road. Screw the fashionista bitches that think they're a good idea. ( The only hold out for ANY legitimacy are Time Trial bikes, but even then, only the baddest athletes on the planet would benefit ). Rant over. :-)
