#32 Re: Micantech - New Suspension System
04-19-2013, 06:44 AM
Would have loved to be there for the test day, i'd really like to try this bike. FFE (funny front end) bikes are cool. The people saying the front swingarm looks flimsy should remember that there is way less stress on it than a conventional fork. This set up makes a lot of sense to me.
My main gripe is the styling, particularly the tail, which looks like it was hacksawed from a piece of mdf. It's just uninspired, it looks like the plethora of cheap fake sportsbikes you find on taobao for a few grand. Same with the website and video, they don't look convincing. I reckon this is an engineer's bike; lots of thought and effort went into the technical aspects, which is a great thing, but not much importance was placed on the design or the brand.
Personally i'd love to see this bike as a naked. You could really do something cool with the frame (or lack thereof) and show off that front end instead of trying to hide it.
