E.13 doesn't make bikes, so a 2013i would be made by Evil. Yeah, but at the same time, Dave doesn't work for Evil anymore. Maybe it's something no one expected, like.... a new kind of dishwasher soap.
Staccato 8
- Thread starter ronan
- Start date
Ya know, that what my next guess because I think they really need one.
It would be awesome.
A big ricer spoiler perched right up on the silver bread truck.
And next year MRP will have one just like it but painted orange.
Flat pedal.
If witty codenames mean anything, I'd lean more towards a gearbox.
here's what wikipedia says:

Sounds kinda gearbox-ish
I'll bet anything it's a pedal, one that "detaches" in a new way. Looks like it disassembles vertically like a hamburger. The picture is an exploded view. You can see the axle at 2 o'clock The upper and lower halves in green above and below the "guts". The bearings, seals etc. are in red, the pins (8, i'm guessing) are the little dots floating above and below. The big dark area in the lower left is a shadow.
I wish I was wrong. The world needs more gearboxes and E13 did promise to build one at Interbike (2005?) - The SUPERBOX! What happened to that, eh? Not so super now.
Staccato 8 sounds like an awesome deli sandwich, maybe with some grilled and marinated artichokes and eggplant, fontina cheese, sundried tomatoes, prosciutto or capicolla ham, maybe a roasted garlic aioli...
Does Ali sound stem-ish?
damn, i just figured out the boxxer / ali relationship.
I saw it last night. New breading for EFC box. Thighs, Whitemeat
I haven't been involved with the company for a couple years now, so I don't know for sure what it is, but having been in business with Dave for years, I'm guessing it's a pedal. Here's why:
1. Dave's wanted to do pedals for a very long time, but his designs were always so far outside the box that none of the traditional pedal mfrs could figure out how to make them cost-effectively (most mass produced pedals start as an extrusion, so simply going to a standard machine shop wouldn't work).
2. Dave is a Solid Works maniac, and he always likes to do up exploded views of his creations. The image in that pic looks very much like a color-coded exploded view of a pedal.
Now, again, I have no way of confirming any of this, but it seems pretty logical. Would I bet my mortgage on it? No (although I did one time remortgage casa del John P. for a run of imperial frames and chainguides . . . talk about some sleepless nights!).
In any event, I'll be curious to see how it all turns out.

It does. Now my dreams are shattered.
so its the 23rd today, we'll see what it really is I guess
Hopefully he used seafoam green just in his SW model by coincidence.
e13 totally sucks for making lousy pedals instead of a trick revolutionary gearbox. i hate them now.
I still see a bumblebee
Dammit! I can never see those things!
I'm changing my guess- I think it's the worlds most advanced bicycle bell ever made. It probably will take 10 seconds off your time when rung, can be heard even under water and has the option of a cool Rammstein reverb effect. I will be ordering two, one for each hand. It will be glorious.

its a puppy.
It can also be heard in space.
when rung, it summons Sam Hill who magically appears in a puff of green monster energy vapor and eyebrow mousse. He will then stop time and give line advice on whatever section you happen to be riding at the time. If it's your race run, he will also give you a quick push to get you going before he starts time again.
It's a pedal.
Pedals were just released. Will have pics shortly.
Its a bunch of U's and O's it what I saw! That and a headache from eyeballing the screen too close!
And....?
Whats the platform size 4x4 ???
I just noticed they are plastic over aluminum!
Replaceable colors.
Replaceable colors.
It's for colors as well as different shaped platforms and a super thing (17mm) pedal body.
Well that is cooler than I though. I know it might be too soon, but any price range?
Looks like another innovative and rad product from the evil geniuses at e.13 (pun intended!). Look forward to trying them out sometime.
