The bike is still made of triangles, he just filled in what would be the
hollow areas with extra carbon fiber. The same front "triangle" could be made
to look exactly like a Spec Enduro, and would probably be a lot lighter. You
can make a bike like this without obvious geometric shapes, but for the same
stiffness it will be heavier than a normal hollow truss design. The carbon
filling in the middle of the triangles contributes little to no strength.
