looking forward to what you come up with, keep up the good work :!:

Re: URT works fine as long as you sit on the saddle, the moment you stand on your pedals your whole body adds to the unsprung weight .... We decided to go for a concentric BB for the Rohloff belt drive and a "normal" suspension design for our Pinion fully combined with a belt tensioner a la...

Re: Re: Stay away from anything but Gates for a descent beltdrive system. Make sure you have a frame thats's stiff enough and aligned well so you can benefit the most from your beltdrive.

Re: Bought an Early Rider Belter 16" for my almost 4 year old and that was the best purchase ever. Whole geometry, cranks, cantilever brakes are suited for his age. This way he learned to ride a "proper" bike from day one and still has the benefits from it. Scaled up to a Belter 20"when he was...

Re: I tried the Lauf for a week ....... conclusion.... not for my posture and riding style. The Pinion is there to stay though!

Sweet mix of parts, looks like you run the LUV handles with pretty much rise though :shock:

Steve Potts, as I don't read anything about budget ;)

Re: No, it's a gearbox NOT a bloody motor... All CNC parts on our bike are own design, from the cable guides to the Yokes, drop-outs etc. Gives a lot of satisfaction to work with your own "lego box" of parts :D Lucky to have an in house designer that likes to freak out on the smallest...

HA is 70gr on this one, with a 650mm toptube and a 90mm stem. Just wanted a more agile bikes for allround XC fun, But the bike held extremely well on the EWS trails of Ainsa and Finale Ligure too, as on the DH Motolino in Livigno Anyways, geometry is bespoke :wink:

Obviously a lot of Manitou parts and know how on that bike (forks, seatpost, complete rear triangle) .... looks like a Manitou spin off

Re: Re: Depending on conditions and how often you clean .... but anywhere in between 5K (use in muddy ofroad conditions) and 25K kilometers ...... and even more on 100% tarmac roads.

Re: Re: Hidden from the elements, designed and enginered by guys coming from the transmission departmet of Porsche. Only requires an oil change every 10K or yearly.

Re: Re: https://pinion.eu/en/ Gearing works eccelent, quite similar to Rohloff. When you practise a little bit you can actually shift much faster then with derailleur. You can't shift under big pressure, but when you take the presure of a bit you just turn the gripshift and when you hear...

Re: No, it's a gearbox NOT a bloody motor... Sweet machine, love the EWR inspired look. The upgrade to Onyx is a good decision (you know you can have a custom logo on it for free too?). The Onyx hub makes the drivetrain more direct as well. It virtually takes the second freewheel away as the...
