Cervelo aren't gunna have a steel bike in 2005.
I assume people could buy a bike on the spot? At lower prices?
G'day,
Actually it was very noticable the lack of anything new or interesting in steel frames. iasked the bloke at the Cervelo satnd about the super prodigy thing & he said that Cervelo felt that its future rested in composite technology & had done all they could do with steel!....It was the same with everybody there, none of the marque Italian steel manufacturers were there....it was carbon, carbon, carbon. As a carbon man myself it's good to see manufacturers 'getting with the strength', but It's depressing as well....I don't want everyone on carbon bikes!....hang onto those '853's' they are gunna be collectors items. Fair dinkum, in 10 years, if this years show is anything to go by, you'll tell young blokes that they used to make bikes outta steel & they won't believe you!
