But not nearly as cool as the custom vintage one I posted
Course I remember when the Mongoose was a good bike & huffy was junk..

Wow, is that thing a real TT bike or a prototype for photo shoots to promote Specialized. Just notice no saddle height adjustment. Maybe hidden adjustment, who knows?

No clue but guessing the saddles are adjusted under what one calls the seat post. Take a peak at some of the wild TT bikes that have clever adjusters under the shrouds. Possibly for the stem too.

On the same, have you seen the integrated water / bladders set into the aero frames? As neat as it seems, I'd rather see the weight of water removed from the bike and somehow sport an integrated 'cool - water' jersey. Have small water cavities integrated, a micro pump / mini switch to move the fluids out of packets and to the rider.

Looks like the tandem has removable seatposts, each rider has a custom one laid up and it gets installed. Very cool.

Gotta be an internal drive shaft to be functional.
