nice 'dazzle' paint scheme

New bike or new paint? Look similar to the old reacto.

Looks like a few subtle differences. Seat post and front end from the looks of it.

seat stays smaller too

Yeah seat stays, the headtube area on the top tube to make it flow with aero stem/bar combo (not a fan of this).
I would have liked to see the brake put back on top of seatstays but I guess they want to keep it as a trading mark (plus probably difficult to figure out the cable routing).

Looks like we finally have some info. The new disc model looks great I reckon. Cool feature being the disc rotor coolers. Big claims on the 35% cooling.



The older Reacto was fairly slippery in testing, so I'm interested to see if this new model is an improvement.

More info here

yeah. looks like it disperses the heat right into the carbon chainstays



how do they get away with cutting such a big chunk out of the chainstay

[corky]

And what does that lump weigh?
