Thinking of drilling a few vortex generators into my carbon frame.
Does anybody know what size drill bit is best, and how deep to go?
I don't want to drill all the way through, coz that might ruin the vortex generation.

There’ll be a bicycle equivalent of http://a320whine.com soon.

Vortex generators have their uses, but as with everything, there’s often compromises that marketing can gloss over.

I wouldn't say no.

if you're going to go to the trouble of setting your bike up for a photo, at least spend a bit more time photographing it in front of a plain background.

what's with the front hub assembly???

31-01-2018 11:26PM

Wondering the same

magicbastarder · 31-01-2018 11:55PM

looks like the dropouts are sitting out on a spring mounted assembly for suspension.

Its a front wheel suspension.

Mods win again !!!!:D

recedite · 01-02-2018 07:33AM

I thought I'd seen it all, but now I've seen a front suspension made from elastic bands and a front derailleur that doubles as a beer bottle opener, both on the same bike!
I give it top marks

twinsen · 01-02-2018 05:30PM

3700$ , insane price

recedite · 01-02-2018 11:42PM

insane price

Not for the ultimate hipster accessory.
Lets face it, the reason it can have a bottle opener instead of a second chainring is because this bike is never going to see a gravel road, let alone a mountain.

Not because its rider normally climbs mountains in the big ring, and then has time for a beer at the top while waiting for the other riders..
