Interbike 2018: Showroom Floor, Pt. 2

Aqui está a segunda parte da nossa viagem pelo showroom da Interbike 2018. Como mencionado no post de ontem, o show deste ano não foi exatamente uma bonança para o triatleta amante de equipamentos. Embora houvesse algumas pequenas coisas que nos deixaram animados, o show acabou sendo uma decepção.

A boa notícia é que há um evento BEM específico para triatlo no mês que vem no Havaí. Por enquanto, aproveite essas fotos de despedida, e nos vemos em breve em 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.
