Anyone out there used a Pinion gearbox before? I've been eyeballing the Priority 600 for a while now...
They look like they'd be pretty expensive.
Yeah, minimum $2k for a pinion equipped bike.
I still really want one for my commute. The low maintenance is very attractive, especially since I ride all year long.
Why not a planetary?
The pinion design incorporates a planetary set - is there something different you're think of? Please send me a link!
Are you familiar with the torpedo gear systems? Or these now modern: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shimano_Nexus
