Interbike 2011 - Las Vegas , a set on Flickr.
As always there is a lot of chatter about Interbike. Some loath Vegas others love it. Not as big as Eurobike but too big for dealers to connect with distributors etc. Whatever the feelings about the show are it's the product the never disappoints.
2012 does not promise to be a bumper year but there were still a lot of very cool things to be sen in the halls. Power meters and shoes seemed to be active and innovative categories. The race is on to own the power meter market and it seems each new development leapfrogs the one before. Not long after SRAM acquired Quark and looked to have the best solution and they have already been swallowed up by the power pedals offered by Garmin and Look/Polar.
The shoe offerings are equally fascinating with Fizik, Giro, Mavic, Specialized 74 and more challenging the old guard.
Time trial and aero bikes were the focus of the bike manufacturers with NeilPryde Bayamo and Bayamo + getting a lions share of the press with only the BMW designed prototype on display.
