Went and had a look at their website. The idea seems pretty cool but $1300
US for a frame only means I won't be getting one in a hurry. Anyone here
ridden one?

Only for about 100m, but it felt very light, if somewhat flexy. Great
for climbing, but my mental "jury" is still out vis a vis sprinting or
descending.

Only for about a km. Everyone who I knew who had one, broke them (I knew of
2, road/tri frames, would have to have been 10years ago?). Failure at the
seattube/top tube join from memory. Both sold their replacement frames as
soon as they came in.

Are these the frames that had a cable instead of a downtube? Weir
stuff indeed
