nah mate, thats relativeley ordinary compared to a burner  :D


Slingshot did mountain bikes like that too ( i think first? ) sort of a non-supension frame but with some "give"

theres new high spec bikes being released now with the same idea.

I know even PUMA (yes the trainer company) have realeased a folding bike using the steel cord system.

Slingshots are great bikes, I love them.

I had one to test in 85 for a couple of weeks, there was no flex at all but it was a very heavy bike.  Also weird to look down and see the massive girder that is in place of the top tube. 

I will definately have to have a Slingshot in my collection soon.
