Dude, I got to feel up the XX cassette (and other XX stuff) at Frostbike and it was AMAZING! Super light, really nice machining, really just a beautiful piece of awesomeness. Can't say enough good things about it. Now.... I wonder how it rides?

Does that have the electronic shock setup for the fork?

IT IS MADE FOR UNDCT!!  :undcc:  Just by looking at it I want to switch to MTBing!
The minimum number of bikes one should own is three.  The correct number is n+1, where n is the number of bikes currently owned.  This equation may also be re-written as s-1, where s is the number of bikes owned that would result in separation from your partner.

Yost... the electronic system that Cannondale has been developing since like 2003 is called "SIMON" and it's now in the prototype phase (as opposed to the development phase). I've read articles of people who've ridden it and they all say simply that "It will 100% change the game of mountain biking" and it's not even fully functional yet.

By my judgement... I would say it's still probably 5 years off to the very top end of the sport.

Ninja edit... this is the bike that they are currently using for testing... but you can't buy that hot action yet.

Yeah i wasn't a fan when they first came out. Since then tho... cannondale has actually made the platform worth while and the benefits are there. I'd have to ride one to see what I thought... but the fact that they're putting simon into a lefty is just that more insane.
