Just wanted to inform those of you who are interested. We have been busy. Pretty quick here we will have our website up with all the frame geo's and sizes for both the traditional drive frames and the pinion drive frames. We are underway with setting up production jigs/parts. We will be doing a 8" frameset and 6.5" frameset. They will be higher pivot style frames. The shock sits right above the gearbox, keeping all the weight low and centered. So for those interested in ditching your rear derailluer and having the benefits of a g-box, they are coming soon. Will will be using the P12 boxes for these. They weigh only 150g more than the 9 speed version so why not have 3 extra gears in case you want them.

Using steel (I prefer the ride characteristics over aluminum. They feel different), high pivot with 18t idler, linkage driven single pivot. We do not want to go back to low pivot design. They feel quite harsh once you have spent time on a high pivot for riding rocky/rough terrain.
