Split Pivot

Same as this

I believe the older design allowed the stays to flex. Now you're stuck with a proprietary skewer and another squeak-prone part.

Typical example of progress in a world full of patents: baby steps done in parallel by different groups...

I read about this on cycling news yesterday and I was thinking that the only reason Trek would do this is to work around the Patents owned by specialized.

To me it looks like a solution looking for a problem but then it again it might be worth while.

Although I am skeptical I am curious to play with it in person a bit.
