    Yes, I saw it. Did anyone get to pick it up? It was ridiculous, at 13.9 lbs., I think. I have never lifted a bike so light. All the IF people were great to talk to at the HUGE booth! Wow is right.

    Awesome pics……the CJ full carbon proto looks fully sorted to me, hopefully it won;t take too long to make it into production.

    The bike is sick. Edge and IF have an exclusive partnership in this and Joe said they are going to right now have the ability to meet 75% + of the custom geos for us customers. No official word on production, but testing seems to be in store.

    I don’t care what anyone says, the bike is a work of art and stroke of genius. The goal is to come in under teh price of the XS and if so, will absolutely kill the competition for a full carbon full custom frameset.

    @Dave, I read That the key facet in IF being able to offer custom full carbon frames is that of EDGE being able to produce different carbon lugs from adjustable molds. Is this the same way that Colnago manages it? anyone know….. just interested.

    Whatever, the EDGE IF ones look way cool with the crown shape…..even ‘edgy’ LOL

    Yes this is the info I was told as well. Not many folks can produce that. Not only that, but being able to tune the tubes to rider weight and stiffness.

    I know that IF and Edge are working exclusively and I would imagine that some companies would love to have this relationship. I bet a few are pissed they don’t :)
