brakeless and no foot retention
hipster ?

backpedalling brake hub

Well it looks cool anyway.

I kinda prefer the hydroformed look of high end Litespeeds, or VNs, though.

It improves lateral stiffness, while retaining vertical complicance.

If true then it doesn't make any sense using it in a toptube?

FTR I was taking the piss.

:)

For a simple explanation – imagine grabbing a square length of tube at
both
ends, and twisting in opposite directions (yeah there's a lot more to
actually doing it than that). The four squared edges will spiral around the
tube – creating ridges that ultimately stiffen the tube tortionally, vertically,
and horizontally- by as much as 35% according to the boys in Tennessee. In
short, the extra work Lynskey does with the tube set means you get stiffness
associated with 6-4 at a lower weight and ride character of 3/2.5 Ti.

hmmmm.

I'm happy with the concept that it looks cool.

Darn, I was hoping this was going to be about Rev Phil's Bike Porn series. Still hot though.

it features on all of the high end lynskey frames

Jeebus, Don Walker does look different!! Ha!

isn't that pistanator ?

Pistanator has a tattoo of a bleeding heart sided by a Spider. Not skulls.

And he's shorter.

But same mustage and lack of haircut or?

What's a "mustage"?

...and if you "lack a haircut", you definitely have too much hair, no?

squints...

Naah.

And he's shorter.

Love this, I had one of those stems on my Cadex.

oh yeaahhh...

Helix tubing is some of the biggest crock of marketing bullshit ever spun in the cycle industry.

Yes, and in a highly competitive field too
