No time to post the past few days so here's my pics in one group. I'm sure you've seen some of the stuff but perhaps I have something you haven't seen from the show. My comments are below the pics:

Curious about this - this looks like the Delta7 Isotruss tech.

Last I knew, Delta7 had gone out of business. Is this that same tech appearing/licensed under another brand? The name on this bike - Kovit Cycles - turns up a web site with next-to-nothing on it, an essentially blank home page, an email contact page, and a non-functioning "about" page.

Just curious if you learned anything more about them at the show?

I knew the original owners and designers of the Delta 7 Bikes. I didn't know someone was remaking them. I just asked a friend who knows them also to find out about Kovit. I should know something soon. I used to have a demo of the Arantix mountain bike. Amazing ride. I wanted the road frame, but they never made a 60 like they were supposed too.

I brought a mint condition copy of a 1986 Fat Tire Flyer to Interbike for the specific purpose of having John Tomac sign the photo in it of him in his first MTB race. I was trudging the floor with Chris Chance when we found him, and after John signed it, I noticed that on the previous page there was a Fat Chance article, so I had Chris sign that. Then I noticed on the page before that a story on Joe Breeze, so I had him sign it also. So what are the odds that the three guys I'm hanging out with are on consecutive pages of the 27 year old magazine I had with me?

John's inscription reads, "Charlie, this is my first MT. Bike!"

I like the look of this Volagi "adventure" bike.

Here is another version of the same model - in titanium (the other is steel).

They are saying the Longbow Flex Stay design already provided a good bit of cushion, and with titanium, they’re getting about twice the compliance.

that Volagi is sweet...I think I found my next dream bike.

[ORMojo]

How about these?!

Yes, there's info on the company under the photo in the comment section in my Flickr album. Here's a close up of the tube section:

The guy on the right in this pic is one of the new owners:
