The latest mountain bikes come loaded with great technology! However, let's face it, an MTB's biggest weakness is the derailleur which hangs off the back of the bike in rock-bashing territory! We've been given EXCLUSIVE access to the Gamux Sego downhill bike which comes specced with a Pinion Automatic Belt-Drive Gearbox. Join Rich as he delves deep into the facts, figures, advantages and disadvantages of such an interesting futuristic DH bike.

Thank you for the video! I would summarize geraboxes as following “get out, have fun, enjoy the silence, no worries!”. I’m a convinced believer in gearboxes. I own a pinion tournig bike and waiting for my new nicolai saturn GPI to be delivered. Once you try a pinion gearbox you’ll never go back to a conventional drivetrain (unless you are a pro rider). The weight penalty is completely overcome by the reliable/smooth/maintenance free rides that you’ll experience. Not to mention the possibility to shift while not pedalling (which I didn’t think to appreciate that much until getting used to it and then use again a derailleur for a test bike). Moreover. Once you get home from muddy rides you can just jet wash everything without caring about degreasing and re-greasing the drivetrain. Plus pinion has an incredibly active and capable customer service. 5 stars for me (non competitive italian tourer and MTB lover)

@snokefilmmedia

For gravity oriented riding (downhill and enduro in particular) this could indeed be the future. But for disciplines that involves climbing and speed over flat ground it won't stand a chance due to the lesser efficiency. For regular trail riding that most of us normal people do (i.e non-competitive), this could also be an interesting novelty for many -- depending on the price. For e-mtb's I can imagine that this could get very popular. Nice video, and what a magnificent looking bike! It looks like a mix between a top fuel drag racer and a piece of industrial machinery. Love it!

@qualm43

My single speed is kind of an "automatic gearbox".... I automatically pedal harder when it's steep.

@TheAngryHusky

I’m waiting on this for e-bikes. I’m not buying another ebike until one comes out with a gearbox. I’m sick of tearing up chains and cassettes

@DirtlovR

For this to be the future we must drop the "weight above all" mentality and it needs to be cheaper but that would come with broader use.

@WStar4Life

I’m most excited for the pinion gearbox to make its way to more mainstream eMTBs. If the auto shifting is reliable and the electronics don’t fail the I can see it being on future eMTBs in 3-5 years. That is of course if the price point isn’t insane.

@Liqweed1337

imagine this bike with a light enduro motor!

@Thesomersetgimp

This is the first hyper-bike that actually floats my boat.

@tyrellcobb4665

If one of the big bike makers picks this up, this could be the future. The derailleur is a feat of human ingenuity but it's amazing it has lasted this long on bikes and no one has come up with a better gadget to shift gears. Same for the humble chain and spoke drive system.

@Stomperproductions

Zerode have been doing it on trail, enduro, and DH bikes for years!!! Get on the gearbox!!!

@shredshed4872

Another high pivot + Pinion + belt: Zerode G3

@ish474

I've worked in manufacturing for 25 plus years so I really do love technology and design and engineering. But I find that is separate from my love of riding bicycles I get suckered in just like the next guy buying bicycle parts based on new features but honestly once I'm out riding my bike I don't care. I own a dirt jumper and still ride my BMX bike which have next to zero technology and I've never once found myself wishing for a better experience. If you're racing it's a completely different world and I totally get looking for every advantage but for normal people riding bicycles I don't think there are a lot of problems to be solved. Unless of course we're talking about trying to find more time to ride bicycles❤

@StickyBaldieAdrian

Years ago I had a belt drive road bike, found it so much better to own and ride than any chain bike I’ve had. Wish my Nukeproof Mega was belt drive

@FantomPhish

Get ya hands on the offerings from Zerode for trail/enduro/DH gearbox bikes

@KP-ol3tc

Just seems like we're adding more components that will need a specialist to repair/maintain and could end you up in a tight situation if a busted circuit board is proprietary and backordered which is a common occurrence nowadays.

@user-hu3kn4kk5g

belt drive, high pivot, gearbox, i want one

@pwiles1968

I personally cant wait for this to be more common on eMTB will be a game changer

@ShadLife

I love technology in bicycles. But I also love simplicity in bicycles because a simpler machine is easier to maintain and work on.

@ANTheWhizkid

Im very interested at buying something like a frame set from Zerode and honestly I’m kinda waiting a bit on the news about the pinion smart shift for non E bikes. Keep the news coming!
