[frame of the future ?]

[TonTonUB]

Is it the frame of the future ?
Genius or hideous ?
Add a battery in the tube, replace gearbox by a MGU or an avinox / mahle / maxon / ZF , and you got an utra simple, futuristic and 'pure' emtb.

As for me, i'd like the rear 'triangle' being replaced by a banana moto-cross arm ... but, in the current form, i could buy it !

I've sat on it but not ridden it. I've also sat on Hatties and only ridden in a car park not trails... Is it the future... Well no.

The team are doing well, but i'd say riders like Hattie and Stan would be just as quick on anything, even Reece was World Champ on a Trek standard bike and i'd bet he'd do just as well as he is now.

I don't think the bike is holding them back at all... but i don't think it's making them 5s quicker a lap.
