Saw this in velonews......what happens when the tubes fill with dirt and mud from a wet ride/race? I guess you could saran wrap them? Titus has the exogid stuff which I think was the genesis of this concept.

each frame requires up to 300 hours of hand-weaving, selling for $7,000 each

That's the thing that got my attention too. In addition to that, how about the frame scrubbing to your leg/knee? and how about the disturbed air flow thru the holes (aerodynamic)? Titus' exogrid looks similar but I think it's completely different since it's made of isosceles triagles instead of noodles interlaced together.

I wouldn't expect to see any of those on the trails any time soon.

Not on our trails at least. I think the only persons with the dough for that would be Pops and Dustin. Geezus that's expensive.
