Agreed. I happen to enjoy the hobby of tinkering with old bikes, so my bikes are typically a few decades behind the latest technology. So I can adopt a wait-and-see philosophy.

But still I remember a cynical comment by my dad, maybe 40 years ago. They had just announced some new advanced material, and my dad said: "Mark my words, the first applications will be high end bikes and golf clubs." Also, improving on the bicycle is a very common capstone project for design students.
