Just wondering what peoples opinions on the new bicycles are? Nothing to do with caterham bikes that seem to have disappeared as quickly as they appeared?

Well as an avid cyclist it would be fun to have a Caterham bike to go with my car, and from what I've seen of it seems an interesting design, but I sure wouldn't want it in the F1 team colors even if they were still in it since I am not an F1 fan.

That said, I just blew my wad on a new bike so buying one of these isn't going to happen. Would take a Jersey and bibs though tongue out

nothing to do with F1, or the stillborn Caterham bikes. This has been on the drawing board for a few years.

I've been working on the project for nearly a year now, just looking for some feedback on it. Good or bad feedback is always greatly received.
Im going to look into designing up a decent cycle carrier for the super seven, as ive not found anything that doesnt need a bit of bodging to make fit.

I'm sure these are cool bikes, but the website isn't great, got bored waiting for all the pretty intro pictures to run through, doesn't seem to just have a button to click for an info page?

I like the way the top tube runs into the set stays, but that's all of the bike I saw!

yeah the pics do take a while to load as they are hi-def, its only a teaser site at the mo as they wanted to do the big release at the eurobike show. The facebook page has a lot more pics and the website will be updated next week.

Not sure on the motorbike side of the company, its all gone very quiet. We didn't know anything about it until i was tagged on facebook by a mate asking about them last year.
