I love technology.
I love bikes too.
Some are lame some are cool but If you love bikes then you'll enjoy this thread.
I'll be posting some new bike tech that I've come across, feel free to post stuff that you've found too.
1st up is this tire that not only looks wicked but also very useful.
I like multi purpose products. :D
It's called Cyglo and It's not available as of yet but check it out anyway ;)

Cool huh?
No way can a driver say that he didn't see you when he bumped you on the street ;)
More coming soon.

Not "available" yet? If all they've got is a brochure and a computer rendering, then I'm guessing this is all concept. They haven't even started designing the damned things yet, let alone building them.

Cycling is enjoyable. Except when shifting, that is! Always looking for the right ratio. Constant cadence interruptions with every change in the road or terrain. Missed gears. Jolts to your knees and lower back. How many times have you thought… there’s got to be a better way!

Now there is! With the revolutionary NuVinci® Continuously Variable Planetary (CVP) drivetrain. The problems with conventional shifting are history!

Because the NuVinci CVP is a continuously variable transmission, shifting through its wide 360% ratio ratio range is as seamless and easy as adjusting the volume on a radio. Smooth. Quiet. Always in the right ratio. With the NuVinci CVP, it’s easy to maintain the perfect cadence. So it’s less tiring, easier on your body and more what bicycling was meant to be… enjoyable.

Just a couple of pedicures short of becoming the fellatious-sodomizer vehicle from SouthPark.
