Good review Sheep, I think you pretty much showed everything that was worth showing. You missed a couple of parts, but someone will cover them soon. One thing that needs to be fixed in your review though is that the seat clamp on Robbies S3 is not a Fit. It is actually one of ours (ZodiacEng.). I think many people got confused with this because the pockets are similar to the S3 stem he is running. It was nice to meet you at the show and talk to you a little bit about everything.

I don't know, I was specifically told that was the new Fit seat clamp.

Cool to meet you too. Wish I could have stayed longer.

As for covering everything, I had little time and I tried to spend most of it meeting people. Loads of other places will cover the other stuff. I wanted the highlights as that was all I left time for. Even then I was running all over.

Basically I went to each booth, took a quick look, if nothing caught my eye, I moved on. Also, asked a few people about anything they had spotted.

That new Elementary, is not going to be made.

At least not for a while. The current one is fine.

It was a way to thumb their nose at other companies and their "light" 10oz.+ stems.

Sheep i would be very intersted to hear WHO told you it was the new Fit clamp...because everyone at the Fit and S&M booth is good friends to our company, and was specifically informed as to the fact that it was NOT a prototype Fit part, but a PRODUCTION ZodiacEng. part. You can check it on our myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/zodiaceng Thanks.

In case of any mix ups here's a picture of the clamp at OUR display in the GreasyCombDistribution booth (next to TipPlus)...this one is anodized black..robbie asked for a raw brushed alloy one for his bike becuase it matched the raw finish better...thanks again

Actually, Rob-O said it, maybe he was joking or I miss-understood.

That is definitely a Zodiac clamp, They gave it to Rob-o to put on for the show..So much confusion for a seat clamp..

Considering I designed, wrote the programs, setup the mill, machined, deburred, polished, and handed Robbie the clamp, I think I would know better than anyone that the clamp is not a Fit seat clamp. Not only did I make this one, I have been making these for close to four years. Look at my bike check and see how long before Interbike I posted the pictures. You can clearly see that clamp on there. Long before the Series 3 line was even thought about. In no way am I trying to start something with this, because there is nothing negative going on between Fit and us. I am simply trying to clear this up.

No reason to not buy it just because it isn't.
