The Kavenz VHP X lets mountain bikers choose a Pinion gearbox or a traditional derailleur setup on the same frame, with identical geometry and suspension kinematics.

    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!
