So just been watching Click on the BBC a new nanotech coating has been developed to completely waterproof small metal components. Seems you pop the item in a small microwave oven type thingy press the button and get presto,completely submersible.i wonder how this will effect the bike industry?thoughts....
Gadget Show had something similar recently - applied it to a mobile and then sat it in water....

29er better for riverbed work?
What tyres for silt?
Tubeless to avoid fishing hook punctures?
Hahaha great pic,just wondering about moving components and the longevity of the coating on moving parts?
this is quite old news. I believe that some of the motorola smart phones are coated internally with this kind of technology so they are more water resistant.
About time.
In 1977 I was watching Tomorrow's world ( being 9years old I believed them completely) and thought by now we would all be living with such things....
But no, 36 years later and we have gone relatively nowhere
