Hi Stephen
sorry for the late reply. We had many bicycle trade show the
last weeks. Unfortunatelly we did not found the right distributor for Canada.
It is a pitty.
This current G-BOXX-1 version is working with a modified
14 speed rohloff internal and for this reason the
OE price (1200-1500 euros) is very very high compared to the
nexus or any deraileur systems. This G-BOXX-1 is manufactured
in small quantities only.
But anyway the G-BOXX-1 is a great product and we
have already 3 different manufacturers building bikes
for their 2006 Worldcup racing season ( Nicolai, MBK and MDC)
The G-BOXX-1 system is welded to the frame and it is not working with the new
standard interface G-CON.
But nevertheless, and you have seen it on the CAD-screen ...
we are working very hard these days in order to
get a new G-BOXX-2 design done in order to lower the weight and
the OE price very much. I cannot promise a date , but next summer
seems realistic for prototypes . G-BOXX-2 will not be welded to the
frame but be connected according to the new G-CON standard.
All measurements reg. the G-CON standard will be online on
www.g-boxx.org november 2005.
