price?

Those are nice. How far out is production?

[chuffer]

am i missing something or is the front wheel being held on by a washer on each side of the axle?
(I am talking about the 20 mm version of course...)

seems to be the case.

btw, i saw that bike in person yesterday at Expocycle, the Canadian equivalent trade show. Looks super nice.

On those preproduction proto yes...and they are holding on flawless so far..
But the production version will have a "washer" twice as thick and there will be a "groove" machined in the drop out for it to sit.

The production forks wont be available for at least 8 weeks from now.

There will be special deals on frame & fork combo (picknik table available as a upgrade).

Cheers!
