Interbike 2018 : Salle d'exposition, Pt. 2

Interbike 2018: Showroom Floor, Pt. 2

Voici la deuxième partie de notre voyage dans le showroom d'Interbike 2018. Comme mentionné dans le post d'hier, le salon de cette année n'était pas vraiment une aubaine pour le triathlète amateur d'équipement. Même s'il y avait quelques petits éléments qui nous passionnaient, le spectacle a finalement été quelque peu décevant.

La bonne nouvelle est qu'il y aura un événement TRÈS tri-spécifique à venir le mois prochain à Hawaï. Pour l'instant, profitez de ces clichés d'adieu, et à bientôt à Kona !

  • A very sharp-looking e-bike. Sharp as in pointy.
  • Wonder why e-bike batteries are always rectangular and clunky-looking? It's because they're usually built like this.
  • Another oversized jockey wheel ... but this time they decided to completely cop the name from CeramicSpeed. Bad form.

  • There have been a number of e-bike companies building a complete motor + battery system into a hub. Maybe it's just paranoia, but I'm always worried we will one day discover someone using mechanical doping by putting one of these inside a disc wheel.
  • Enduro always has these demo setups so you can see just how smooth their bearings roll.
  • And finally ... the 'Unintentional Irony' award goes to the graphic design department of Interbike itself. See that lovely Argon18 tri bike that is the marquis of the presentation, featured all over the Event Guide, maps, website, and more? Not only was this show decidedly NOT tri-focused ... but Argon18 didn't even attend the show.
