Yes, I like them much more then 36.5 cm chain stays.

I wonder if someone is going to mount the crank arms onto the chain stays and use a belt drive on either side of the bike to link the crank arms to the wheel on these TT bikes. They could get rid of the bottom bracket completely that way and have the wheels almost touching each other. It would have to make the bike faster, right? That is why they tuck the wheel as far under the rider, right? Just think how quick it would steer with a 28" wheelbase and all the riders weight over the back tire, they might even need a drogue chute to slow it down. [ snarky sarcasm off]
