Would really suck if their pedal business goes away, too. ATAC MTB/CX pedals were practically standard at one point. The xpresso road pedals are good too but they were still recovering from a decade of questionable reliability after abandoning the tried and tried impact and RXS pedals.

the older time bikes were the shit, the ones that were made in france. probably the best lightweight frame you could buy.

it was my dads favorite brand. when he past he left me his 2003 time and its a thing of beauty. its stupid light, probably below the uci limit, tho idk for sure.

The limit is on full bikes, not just frames. If it's under 15lb when it's fully assembled just tape a piece of lead to it or something.

the tryhard massive racey logos plastered in a dozen places style is dead dead dead, replaced by either retro-ish 90s styling and loud colors (trek, santa cruz, spesh) or muted colors with the logo in a couple places in tiny helvetica (kraknfail). god I hate helvetica. fucking npc typeface. anyway I like the alpe d'huez paintjob because the logos are nicely sized and the pattern on the downtube is architectural
