Ohhh good call on those bikes! They weren't as prevalent as most of the others listed, at least in the states, but damn they had some awesome curving & sloping top tube designs. And their paint jobs were waaaaaaaaaaaaay the F better than what we get today.

So much cool stuff going on back then. Thanks for bringing those names back to my mind.

I wouldn't put these names on the list. But here were a few more brands doing things: Brew bikes which had a slew of pro's on them in the very late 80s/very, very early 90s, Landshark is another name that comes to mind. Trimble, Profile (although iirc they were rebadged 4000s) all come to mind as well. Trek's 1500.

I mean we've got another Cervelo being launched in the next 10d or so..with disc brakes...oh look my hr went from 42 to 43.

If disc brakes had the adoption uptake that the Scott DH bars had we'd all be on a 2nd generation disc brake by now. Instead disc brakes are like a 70yr old taking a double dose of Viagra trying to get his limp dick up. The industry is dragging you kicking and screaming towards disc vs making something everyone is slitting their training partners throats to get.

Wake me up when something BIG happens in triathlon.
