      I cringe everytime I hear short chainstays for good climbing, in fact longer chainstays help you keep a good angle and position on climbs and will help stabilize the front.
      The only thing short chainstays do is render the bike more twitchy and with your hands placed on a extended stem almost over the front axle it will only be worse.
      You'll see, logic always prevail, or does it? 😂

      AcTo5 I-train; answering the question,
      "what do we tell the bank we're doing, now that the big defense contract got cancelled"?
      IngRid; "The tech school senior project that got me hired by Shimano".
      Zocelli; "what's an unemployed shredder in butthole eastern Europe supposed to do with a yard full of broken farm equipment?"
      SuBa; Op. cit., see France
      Amapola; "poor heat control never looked so good."
      Posedla; "earnestly matching your flabby western cheeks to whatever pattern pieces we can source cheaply from China!"
      Freeflow; "Chinese parts in un-identifiable casings, adapted to need".
      Huhn; "Dentist money!? We laugh at 'dentist money'…."
      Auguste; that painted over fork makes me want a go at the frame to look for 'Huffy' on it.
      Bordure; if my Dad supported me, I'd make him a bike like that too, certainly.

      I’d like to see more development of the gear box. Something that is lighter than the current systems. I know cost is a factor but if it were more economically feasible a transmission composed of Ti, carbon fiber, and magnesium would definitely be lighter.

      Are you attending Outerbike at all during your stay? I’m coming down there later this week for the Festival and I was hoping to meet you if your still there!

      2:40 my 2×9 Alivio crankset made of Aluminium for 35 € ( already hollowtech 2)uses the same technique, but it's forged, not cnc machined
      These cheap caranksets however are quite strong, mine had several pedal strikes but it isn't bend yet.
      These expensive hollow road group cranksets made by Shimano already break apart without any pedal strikes.

      Regardless of the class of vehicles for cyclists with one wheel, two wheels or three wheels, which use the same technical and technological system, you have no way to progress technologically. Every year, when such international fairs are held for vehicles aimed at cyclists, apart from changes in the design of bicycle frames, I do not see any other progress in inventiveness in these vehicles. When I will see a vehicle like the concept and made by me, then I can say that it is at the beginning of evolution for this type of urban transport.
