THE BIG DAY

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

Howdy from Vegas,
Wow, what a day yesterday was here at the Interbike show. The booth was slammed all day long with gawkers. At times it was hard to even see the bikes. But when the hoards cleared, we were able to snap a few shots for you all to see.

MOUNTAIN
First, the all new Mojo Carbon. It’s a full carbon monocoque mountain bike with 5.5 inches of rear wheel travel, a DW Link rear suspension, with the frame and rear shock weighing in at 5.8 pounds. The built up bike with XTR components and Easton XC One wheels weighs in at 25 lbs. A spry little ride all day xc comfort cruiser.
Here’s a pic, there are a couple more on the main Ibis site (click on mountain at the top)

ROAD
The Silk Carbon is also a fully monocoque carbon frame, weighing in at 950 grams in a 58cm frame. That’s light for those of you not schooled in grams. I’m very happy to say that during the last 15 days, I was RIGOROUSLY

And here are a few more….Click on image for a larger view.

IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS

Thursday, September 15th, 2005

A quick peek at the current Ibis home page-if you look at the third frame from the left in the Scot row-reveals an image that many have misinterpreted. Some go so far as to think it’s disgusting. What we can tell you is that it is indeed a part of his body. We didn’t hire a highly paid supermodel for this one. Go check it out, and come back here. Take a guess. Whaddya think it is?
If you guessed some disgusting part of Scot’s anatomy, well, you’re both right and wrong. If you think that he keeps it hidden while in public places, you’re generally wrong, at least if he’s wearing shorts. It’s his knee. A very disgusting knee, but still only a knee.
Ibis: G rated.
