The tires are lopsided, and the wheel decals extend into the brake track. Plus, it's got no brake levers or pedals.
Who could possibly ride this bike!?

Integrated brakes. No photos of the production bike that I can find.
Edit -- Estimated price is $10k for the frame and associated bits.

Foogly wheels, but a nice frame. Seems that the Plasma 3/Shiv look is a pretty one in the wind tunnel...

Expect to see it in the Ironman in Oct. Markus Storck is delivering one to Faris al-Sultan at Interbike.

Can't wait to see the details of the fully integrated carbon brake system.

That is one of the fugliest bikes I have ever seen. It's up there with that experimental one that C-dale did a while back with the roller-blade wheels up front.
