it is a photo from pinkbike's image galleries, so the pinkbike watermark makes sense. i actually can't tell that it's a photochop myself, but that's what i read when that pic first surfaced. furthermore the other alutech pics on pinkbike are "normal"Originally posted by RhinofromWA

To whom it may concern-
Sorry for asking this question in English. I wish to know whether these
two pictures are of a real Alutech frame, or whether they are the
result of an active imagination and Adobe Photoshop:
