2 Wheel drive MTN. Bike

Does anyone remeber the thread I posted about a website selling all wheel drive mountain bike's (2wd). They were still in there prototype stage, and were very intresting designs.
Well in this years Paris Dakar there was a number of motorbike using exactly the same type of 2 wheel drive, and early test's showed that the design has huge potential. Some of the prototypes even completed the race. So expect to see more motorbike's with this tech, and I would not be surprised if in the future it make's it onto road bike's and as it become's more refined it could hopefully make its way onto certain pedal bike's. I don't think it will ever replace conventional drive type's just be another type of bike to choose from.
