I thought the same thing. Horrible surfacing. I hope they hire an alias modeller before they tool up. 

Looks like a 3d print to check fitment.

Fairly cryptic of you,

Link looks identical to this one seen under Remi Thirion last year, but with a carbon frame.

It's definitley a carbon frame and so far we've only seen aluminium prototypes for the new Glory. Looks like this could be a production version.

You can already see a lot of tangency breaks here. If you can see them on a rough 3d print like this then you’re going to see them on a cnc/forged/cast/whatever that ends up being made from part. Any half decent industrial designer would get shot for this, especially on what is likely to be an extremely high-end frame.

Interesting, I hope they will improve the engagement.

For some reason the pictures were removed from Pinkbike.

I see a clip keeps the pawls and springs in place, so you won't lose them if you drop the freehub.

The video is still up.

Great stuff: spare parts guaranteed for 10 years after product is discontinued.

looks to still be easy to work on.

improved sealing.

Think he’s gone full content creator and no longer in Norco so might be riding something new if he gets a sponsor or maybe Norco will sponsor him.

“For some reason the pics were removed from Pinkbike” - the reason being that there’s an embargo on the release, which true to form they ignore by “accidentally” posting stuff to open pages while they prepare their articles…time and time again. “Oh we’re sorry this happened….again… [insert facepalm]…”

Not being a fan of the latest high engagement hubs, I'm actually hoping they bring back the Pro2 engagement (sub 40T) but with the improved sealing on the Pro5.

Yes, and more points of engagement against the odds are not always better

yeah, there was a post a while back that clarified they're for e-motos. The background of the insta photo also looks like it features e-motos...

that said, you could still try to put it on an mtb if you reshim it.

 Some more traditional style rims coming from zipp? Can’t tell if they’re carbon or aluminum, wondering if zipp is gonna try to sell something to compete with the new reserve alloy wheelsets.

wouldn‘t associate zipp with alu, but maybe they will replace all sram wheels for OEMs, so that move would make sense in that regard.

Based on the color I'd say they're carbon. But I'm guestimating here.
