Not Biopace but elliptical rings are back in favour with the pros..

Maybe not bars but check the '09 drillium..

Campag Aero water bottles.

Still being done..

I'm sure I saw someone in the ToC last week using an elliptical chainring/s :S

Integrated FTW:

Those Spesh ones are integrated if you have a Spesh TT frame, that is.

who the hell rides bikes anymore.

Who remembers the Zefal 'Doo Hiki'???

Nope - its not a school bike shed kiss!

**Shimano Front Freewheel System **- Chainrings always spin so you can shift while coasting.

Thats having a big comeback in the Trials world I believe.

What's the advantage?

All over wool 'aero' body suits.

I guess it has two wheels.. But I wouldn't call it specifically bicycle technology in the sense of everything else on this thread

It is also not forgotten!

that's awesome!

Thats having a big comeback in the Trials world I believe.

If it is, it's a second comeback. My friends who rode trials when I was 17 were running front freewheels, and that was 6 years ago.

Fuck gripshift.

+1

Shittest gear changing mechanism ever.

Fuck gripshift.

I always used Sachs gripshift - much better than the Sram one and the best for downhill too - just click down, down, down... Smooth as well, and simple to maintain.

Not so bad really!

nah, not convinced. rapidfire 'ftw'.

Fuck gripshift.
