The Inside Line Announces Tonton Fat Bike
@vinay: Direct mount sure, but direct mount alone doesn't make it transmission.

The Inside Line Announces Tonton Fat Bike
Transmission compatibility is only half the point of having a UDH. It's also nice to know that you can walk into pretty much any bike shop and get a replacement hanger if needed.
Also, don't think mechanical transmission is coming, but maybe that's just me.

Tech Tuesday - Why Brake Positioning Is More Important Than You Think
I only disagree with you on this because of the mechanical advantages of running your levers further out (leverage). Where I live, I see plenty of bikes with the levers too far in to get proper power.
Plenty of people with high end brakes are not getting the braking power they should, see this a lot with bikes that come through the shop I work at. I'd say lining it up with the last hinge of the finger is the best trade off. But at the end of the day I guess it's all preference, ride what you like.
