Actually a nice looking frame. I liked the frame shown with the Di2 group. Seems too light to me, but maybe it's still strong enough.

I can't wait for a decade from now when the tech will become affordable!

1.5 pounds? So after adding everything they have to add maybe 10 pounds of ballast for it to be legal, right?

at that time, will we ALL be riding bikes that are significantly lighter than the pros?

hopefully this will mean a price drop on the existing supersix himod bikes. That way, I'll only have to sell one kidney to get one, instead of two!

Did anyone else catch the "class-leading stiffness to weight ratio" comment. I'd like to see how stiff it is compared to heavier frames, not what kind of ratio it can produce. It's essentially saying "It's loss of stiffness is proportional to it's loss of weight." A lot less impressive when you put it that way.
