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

    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.

    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.

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

    I like it :o
    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*

    Ugly. IS the thinking behind it to have the forks and chainstays out wide so air will just flow through or something? They are now directly in front of and behind the riders' legs so the surface area for resistance is ever so marginally reduced?

    Or am I talking absolute nonsense?


    No more than usual.

    Something went horribly wrong with this bike fit


    Could 2020 be the year of the anti-slammed stem trend?
