External BB bearings had to have an advantage!

That's rather clever.  I wonder if it works...

Looks like a good idea but at €149 I'm going to wait for someone else to find out first.

Ooh, nice.
It takes blood and guts to be this cool but I'm still just a cliché.

That does look good.  It will probably be more solid than the ENO, which seems to need tweaking every 1000 miles or so.   That said, I'd rather tweak the axle than the BB "in the field".

You have to adjust the two sides independently, as far as I can see. The eccentric bearing holders are locked to the top-hat screw-in adaptors, so one side or other is likely to try and undo itself as you pedal.
