Hmmm. Firefly. ENVE. Beaut couplers. Looks amazing.

Having a look at the original post I commented on - are the bottle cage threads part of the couplers or still part of the frame?...

I am so not a fan of the man, but drooooooool.

Why split the front triangle of a frame?

 

Cool engineering but I don't get it...

This is THE ****

I wish I did not see it. That just about spoiled all other road bikes, forever.

Agreed - didn't mean it was carbon specifically. Just noticed the couplers. Didn't realise they wouldn't work with carbon. Learn something every day

 

Sure they do....tandem Calfee fullsus custom goodness with S&S couplers

 

And yes at around 50cm that is quite possibly the worlds tallest BB!

From what I understand these bikes are 'travel' bikes required to be transported on a regular basis (in planes etc). I presume the position of the couplers is determined by the most even spilt without affecting the frames major stress points...?
