Looks like they have gone with track ends (rear facing dropouts) instead of the sliding dropout thingy. Doesn't this make wheel removal more of a pain?
From my experience with Kleins, it is an acquired taste, like beer. If you're riding SS, it's not a biggie at all. If you have a rear der, it's good once you get used to it. It does have a der tab, though, so that's good.

Any news or rumors on how much the pricing for the frames will be going up, if any?
pricing tbd. will keep you posted. I potentially see a lightly used 19.5 going on the market at about the same time, too.
I foresee a 18" potentially hitting the market about then too. That's a sweet looking ride.
We need to talk cross bikes very soon, btw
