Return of the 'Slingshot!'

I just caught wind of this from Rotoburn Forums (ERB website here => http://www.erbbike.com/)

I'd explain the principle behind the design but I fell asleep 12 seconds into the blurb...

Blimey. You don't get much seatpost adjustment on the small.

:shock:

Nor any bracing or triangulation on the seat mast.
Snap, crackle & pop!

Those bikes always were crap, and the new ones aren't any different. Any bike with a hinge in the middle and a cable for a downtube goes right to the top of the Rube Goldberg list, IMO.

The only one I like there is the Farmboy. The 26" wheel one looks ugly imo whereas the Farmboy is a lot more streamlined.
