A modular approach to bike construction using CNC alloy lugs glued together according to the rider's measurements and requirements to create custom frames. Sounds pretty good, although it is claimed that 'aerospace-grade structural adhesive' will be used. |

Check out Vitus and Allan alloy frames.They started doing this in the '80's.
Could be a patent infringement here?
Cheers,

Other examples include the Raleigh USA Technium w/ a glued aluminum main triangle and the LOOK frame
with alloy lugs and glued carbon fiber tubes.

Only the Vitus and Allan frames qualify for the "eroica".

Only the Vitus and Allan frames qualify for the "eroica". Cheers, Pete. True.... I recall a local rider with an Allan bike back in the mid 70's Nicknamed the "spaghetti bike" because the frame was so flexible. |
