full suspension, hydraulic brakes, powered gear changes, these things have been around for the thick end of 20 years.

Steerer tubes 1.5" at the bottom and 1.25" at the top.
I think Giant are just taking the pi$$.

I'm waiting for another bolt through hub standard!
15mm to 20mm tapered?
No, sadly not a joke.

Engines. Revvy 2 stroke ones. That's my tip....
hub brakes and gears. imo
Gooseneck stems & lycra helmet covers.

Isn't there a electric shifter for roadie bikes? That for mountain bikes.
Hope KERS hubs
Bikes. With wheels and that.
Hope KERS hubs

Hasn't Trek/Fisher been doing this for several years? Cannondale can take the same forks with a step-down adaptor at the top.

Well there are woods valves as well .Maybe tubes will be made in common sizes for them?
USB Ports, belt drives, more plastic.
Cannondale will make a "righty".
