Cannondale OnBike: Because Symmetry Is Overrated

The simple, asymmetry of the limited edition Cannondale OnBike is not the only thing that makes it so striking. You won't spot a chain or (much) external wiring. And the frame itself...is that...squared?

Cannondale's OnBike not only sticks the front forks to one side (a trick that offroad bikes have used for a while, but is still qualitatively awesome)—the gear box, balanced to the opposite side, functions as part of the frame, attaching the whole rear wheel on its own.

From the top down, the bike would look like one, long diagonal line machined from a single block of metal.

Cables are hidden inside the angular, aluminum frame. And the SRAM i-MOTION 9-speed hub gear and chain are tucked safely inside a maintenance-free (really?) box. You can appreciate the disc brakes, Octopus pedals, and Schwalbe Kojak Bad Boy tires—I'm just relieved to see it only comes in black.

Tobi is not Madara Uchiha and that is my verdict.

1. Zetsu’s Approach Zetsu keeps the name Tobi and he is the only person who is very close to Tobi, since he is a spy and has the most information in the entire Naruto universe, he exists everywhere planted beforehand blended with the environment. Zetsu also wonders how much Kabuto knows about them, in vary tone. They’ve got something to hide other than their fighting powers. Kabuto already knows most of their secrets which they’ve got hidden even from Akatsuki members to avoid an internal clash for power. 2. Tobi’s awe of Kabuto’s Re-animation. Okay, this is very very intriguing. Madara Uchiha is afraid of something; it’s also a very best kept secret. since Kabuto promises that he hasn't told a soul. Madara who can analyze and formulate any jutsu asks “how did you do this?” Who is he afraid of, let us think back, He is not afraid of anyone. He has had only reverence for Hashirama, even then it cannot be first or the second Hokages since they were sealed by the third H...

Working!! is fun and satisfying

Working!! is an anime about the interesting things that happen in a family restaurant called Wagnaria, primarily about the staff that work there. Every character is quirky in someway or the other and it makes for some good comedy and drama. I’d like to go over the characters in the series in the order of their importance and talk about how I feel about them. Taneshima Popura: Taneshima is a high school senior who is very short, she is confused for an elementary student most of the time. She is very upbeat and works hard, but has a huge complex about her height and is sometimes pranked upon by fellow workers in Wagnaria. Takanashi Souta: Takanashi is a junior to Taneshima and is recruited by her to work in Wagnaria at the start of the series. He likes all things tiny and deeply adores Taneshima. He is level headed most of the time and works hard. He has three elder sisters and one younger sister whom he has to ...
