Carbon Fiber Bicycle Fabrication

Not really a FIRST related tech question but I wanted to troll for an answer from some fellow engineers.

I'm looking at a new road bike. Here is what I'm looking at. http://www.specialized.com/SBCBkMode...h rjcg.j27010

I wanted to see if any of you know how Specialized eliminated the bonding lug style construction, i.e. Trek & Giant. I can't figure it out. They claim monocoque construction but I can only figure out how to make this frame in 3 pieces and bond them together. 1 for the main triangle and 1 for each seatstay/chainstay.

Thanks in advance,
Pete
