I'd like to see pneumatic tires with more puncture resistance than Specialized Armadillos, but without the extreme trade-offs of Airfree. Better rain capes/rain pants would be wonderful. Really bright, high efficiency gas-discharge or LED leadlights would similarly be great. I'd like to see further developements of the Rohloff.
