4/11 RIDE Chainless BIKE:
http://www.dynamicbicycles.com
\_ much cooler shaft-drive bike: http://www.biomega.dk

"Shaft drive bicycle technology is not new."
\_ Funny that nowhere on the site did I find a mention of weight.
That is usually a standard thing to list about a bike or frame
set...
\_ From http://www.dynamicbicycles.com/chainless :
"Our shaft drive bikes weigh about one pound more than a
comparable chain and derailleur bike, yet their perfect
balance keeps the feel of the bike light and responsive."
--dbushong
\_ That's misleading. The main thing is they're using Shimano Nexus
gearhubs. Internal hubs have been around forever. That Shimano is
good enough for a casual city bike but not for performance.
They also list the weight in their "Q&A": 32 lbs. Boat. Anchor.
Rohloff Speedhubs are cool though: http://www.rohloffusa.com |

| www.dynamicbicycles.com/chainless -> www.dynamicbicycles.com/chainless/ Privacy Policy Chainless Technology Unchain Yourself At the heart of Dynamic Bicycles is our innovative, chainless technology. It eliminates the number one complaint people have always had about the ir bikes the chains and derailleurs. The shaft drive uses a fully-enclosed bevel gear system (much like a car transmission) made of lightweight, yet durable aluminum alloy. Combined with Shimanos advanced internal gearing (all neatly tucked away inside the rear wheel), our bikes not only have a sleek, modern look, but they deliver an incredibly smooth ride and great performance. shaft drive Easier to Operate Using Shimanos twist grip shift, just a simple twist of the wrist provid es responsive shifting and rapid speed transitions. Its design and opera tion is elegantly simple, yet its performance is undeniably invigorating . We have even minimized the weight of our bikes for fast rides and easi er handling. Our shaft drive bikes weigh about one pound more than a com parable chain and derailleur bike, yet their perfect balance keeps the f eel of the bike light and responsive. shaft drive Simplified Maintenance Both the shaft drive and the internal gearing are inherently low maintena nce, so little effort is required on your part to keep your bike running at peak efficiency. Compared to chain bikes, they can go much longer wi thout maintenance or adjustment so they can operate more efficiently, mo re consistently. In other words, for each turn of your pedal you go fart her with less effort. In fact, all of our bike components have been conf igured to be easily maintained at home. From tire changes to cable adjus tments, our bikes are as easy to maintain as they are to ride. Chainless is Painless With the fully enclosed shaft drive technology, there are no exposed movi ng or greasy parts. So unlike traditional bikes with chains and sharp sp okes, our shaft drive bicycles wont bite you. You also wont have to worry about grease on your hands or clothes. In other words, with a chai nless bike, you can take it anywhere, anytime, worry free, and arrive in style. |
