Looks interesting, not sure I'd trust it though.

The Arantix the only mountain bike frame in the world incorporating IsoTruss® technology.
IsoTruss technology combines two different lightweight ideas into one for the first time ever. The first is carrying the truss design into the tubes just like the traditional bike frame takes advantage of the triangle geometry. Second you take the lightweight characteristics of advanced composites and maximize it. Here are 7 reasons why IsoTruss® technology makes the Arantix by Delta 7 Sports a superior mountain bike.
1. Higher Performance Materials: Made of superior high-grade aerospace carbon fiber that is significantly stronger than other common products.
2. Most Efficient Structure: Patented open lattice design leverages greater efficiency from the carbon fibers strength by concentrating material at proper reinforcement intervals and eliminating excess material.
3. Lighter Structure: Withstands same high loads as other carbon fiber frames with fewer fibers.
4. Increased Stiffness: Standard stiffness & deflection testing shows the Arantix is more similar to high grade aluminum alloys. Unique design and geometry provide increased response, handling and transfer of pedaling force.
5. Impact Isolation: Redundant lattice structure makes the Arantix even stronger during impact/crash scenarios by isolating damage without compromising the whole frame.
6. Ride-OptimizationI: Redundant lattice geometry of the Arantix allows for direction specific design. The frame may be customized with more fibers on the side for improved lateral stiffness as well as fewer fibers on top/bottom for greater vertical compliance, opening up a world of ride tuning possibilities.
7. Unparalleled: The Arantix is an extreme performance hand-crafted composite mountain bike frame produced in a limited production run. With its unique patented IsoTruss® technology, there is nothing else like it on the planet.
