2011 Interbike – day 1
The 2011 Interbike trade show in Las Vegas opened its doors today at the Sands Convention Center and it felt quite busy. It was actually rainy early in the morning but that did not really matter as all activities took place indoors.
We looked at bikes from Crumpton, Quintana Roo, BMC, NeilPryde, Devinci, BMC, Ritte and Bianchi, a new wetsuit from Nineteen, GoPro mounts from K-Edge, high end shoes from Gaerne and much much more.

Nice product placement by Shimano and Pearl Izumi at the registration desks.
The Crumpton road bike in the Fairwheel Bikes both was very light and had a nice collection of parts.

Busy times in the Endurance Conspiracy booth.
Ritte is a California brand with a Belgian influence and some interesting paint schemes.
The NeilPryde Bayamo will come in road and TT versions but is still a ways out.
Retul has a new fitting bike for which they are taking orders right now, but most likely only 15 wlll be built.
The Tifosi Altar starts at $59.95.
David Zabriskie and Ryder Hesjedal were very popular during their autograph session in the Camelbak booth.
The wooden rollers in the Surly booth were quite a riot but some folks like Eric Sovern were quite agile on them.
The Giro Savant weighs 262 grams and retails for $90. But it looks well more expensive.
The Bianchi Oltre looks especially nice in this stealth option.
