I like the security feature. The clasp on the nose of the saddle can be activated by a phone app. If somebody tries to rob the bike, you can activate it remotely and the nose of the saddle flicks up, throwing off the rider. And if its a male, possibly inflicting painful damage to his genitalia.

you bloody heathens, don't you recognise a picasso when you see one?

Looks like something you'd expect to see in a Transformers movie.

Just trying to figure out which part holds the motor and which holds the battery.

Why has nobody commented on the wheels?

Have to say that I though of Indurain’s TT Pinarello when I saw that frame.

Lumen

Oh letape, what have you done?

that's like being asked what brand of watch the person who mugged you was wearing, to be fair.

I know Lumen & apologies to all... Indurain’s bike doesn’t deserve to be posted here!

The wheels themselves are okay, I have a set of ea90 slx myself and they are decent. I'm not sure about the red tyres, or the cross-chaining indicating a pretty taught chain.

Yet again we have another example of what would happen if you got someone who had never seen a bicycle design one from a badly translated description of same. Or maybe the paper got jammed in the printer and the crumpled up page was sent to the frame builders.

Is that even rideable? The rake on the front forks makes it look like a hobby horse. It looks like a death trap..

It looks like somebody sliced one side off a horse drawn wagon. If you connected two of them using a sofa you get one of these

It would be nice with discs in a gravel specific version.:eek:

Sorry didn't mean to repost it!

Once was enough.

It would be nicest just in gravel. Quite deep gravel. Further improvements would be the addition of some cement, sand, and water

I quite like that.

What have Cannondale done? Straight lines and circular tubes all gone for what looks to be an all too familiar looking frame. Hope it means we'll be able to pick up cheap 2019 supersix frames and bikes. I really don't like either their new supersix or CAAD 13.

Lumen

Wait, what? Super six? I thought it was some kind of gravel bike!

SACRILEGE! BURN THE WITCH!!!!

Even by Tri Bike standards this is fugly. I don't care how fast it is

Makes me think of Tron for some reason

It's the ' granny's bathroom ' peach that ruins it.

Apparently its legal!

The 3:1 rule was dropped by the UCI early last year and this bike takes full advantage of being able to make forks 80mm wide - the forks in the pictures above look much wider to me.

The width of the bike from the front looks ridiculous but obviously fits whatever imaginary box for width as decreed by the UCI.

Lotus hope it doesn't catch on.

Look, wilier leave me alone.

magicbastarder

the focus group at lotus felt it would have been a giant mistake to do something that wasn't specialized.

eeeee

I like it
I think the curves are both lovely-ly swoopy and delicate, and it looks simultaneously delicate and strong.
Yum.
I wonder how you change stems though, the forks seem to go into the stem?
It's a bit confusing.
I'm here for it though. *solidarity emoji*
