Its SLS. They can use some good materials now, glass filled nylons etc. I had some parts done last week. Pricey though, but for small runs using a PA mould tool its spot on. Christ knows what that bike cost to do though.

why when trying to prove how awesome a new material or technique is do they have to make something that looks like tat.

surely producing a nice frame or component on a working bike would be more impressive
