          | When it comes to folding bicycles, our 
            engineers are the best in the business. But when it comes to high-end 
            steel frames, Tom Ritchey is one of the most respected names in the 
            business. That's why we licensed Ritchey's BAB technology and worked 
            together to develop steel road and mountain frames. Ritchey's BAB 
            technology allows a frame to be disassembled into two pieces for more 
            compact packing, yet it has absolutely no effect on performance, adds 
            only 98 grams, and is virtually invisible. Frames using Ritchey's 
            BAB technology disassemble in 10-15 minutes to fit into a small suitcase 
            measuring only 23 x 68 x 78 cm (9" x 27" x 31").  |
