That’s what all the really super duper successful companies are doing… instead of designing their own novel ideas that work… they wait 2 years, steal someone else’s tech, make it out of damn near pressed cardboard, make it look shitty, then pay a bunch of industry news outlets and forums to “lose their minds” over how great this “new” tech is. SLF Motion spear headed the industry with their Aero system … two years ago! And pretty sure they are made out of actual carbon fiber or Ti and look sick as hell!.. just my .02
Most of the companies you’ve heard of spend more on marketing than R&D. That’s why you’ve heard of them. It sucks
Agreed. The Ceramic Speed oversized cage is a POS IMHO made of plastic not carbon and trialling Osymetic rings I had a missed shift and the cage snapped in half. Not sure how Absolute Black now market their cages on noise rather than performance to justify spending that much. Can’t say I notice the noise from any of my existing cages including cheap oversized ones I have used off Ebay. The watt saving will be about as minimal as saved by using their overpriced bearings…
