I admit I was scared crapless in the first minute but very impressed by the end.

From an engineering standpoint it pretty cool but as far as aesthetics go, it is one of the ugliest bike I have ever seen.

I think their high end road frame is supposed to be 1.8lbs. Are carbon frames lighter than that? If so, that's pretty darn impressive.

Maybe I am a bit harsh on it. I was only looking at the bike in the link which is 2.3lbs/ 1050 grams, that is light but not against many conventional highend frames today well under 1000grams. Even my hybrid frame is lighter at 1030grams.
