Yep I can imagine a pretty good techno bicycle that wouldn't need much new invention. iPhone slot for navigation, logging, fitness, cadence measures etc. maybe even recharge it off a dynamo. A good opportunity for a well designed piece of carbon fibre \ aluminium loveliness that would sell well to their urban base with good margins at the $1500 range. If they really want to demonstrate their design chops then try for a radical fold-up design which have great practicality for combined use with public transport. Current incarnations are expensive, pretty heavy and a bit weird. If thinking fancifully, then a pop stand and artificial resistance and for dual use as indoor exercise equipment would be pretty cool. Stick a macbook stand on the handle bars and maybe its a new type of "sitting but active" desk. "Bicycles for the mind" after all.
