huh, so this thing mounts against the BB flange and then just velcro's around the downtube?? Obviously the chainrings have some freewheel system, but it sounds like the motor is running on the downhill? What they need is a system that is powered on the way up, but then recharges the batteries on the descent (the way hybrid cars recharge when coasting)... interesting, but I'd never put this on my nice bike, maybe some little kids bike, pit-bike style

re: not paying attention... no, indeed I did not pay attention. I got so bored after the first 60 seconds I just commented without watching the whole thing. At least I didn't waste as much energy as the rest of you getting your panties all in a twist...

12/30/2010 9:28am

I'm 6' and run 50mm BlkMrkt stems on all bikes. I swapped to an 80mm for about three days this summer, and just couldn't deal with it. How did I ever ride that 140mm control tech back in the day???
