looking at the internet, automatic gears are here already and will be standard in 10years (noticed oval chainrings are appearing on standard bikes)
it does seam odd , you have a thing that has a rotational action - your pedals, and yet we carry a seperate pump - thats just dumb. if a bike was a car it would be a model T ford.
why a front brake and a back brake - unified braking like on a car, you don,t have a front and back brake pedal on a car!.
the real revolution will be to defeat drag - why all this tubing , you could make the body from one peice of plastic.
lots on the internet about bike design/development and by bike people like shimaneo so its just time before it become acceptable to the public
