Nuvinci 360

Cuprinol · 07-03-2012, 12:02 PM

Anyone tried it for aggressive riding? Supposed to cope with mtb so Im a bit curious. Power transfer is fluid to bearings so no cogs to skip under heavy power or under shifting.

They seem to have the weight shaved down a bit too, around what an Alfine weighs. Carbon shell and ceramic balls would be nice for a next gen. Oh and a not so super ugly shifter.

Yeah thats crazy heavy. About 800g more than alfine.

But still, for in frame DH applications it would be nice imho.
