FULL SUSPENSION DOWNHILL TREE GRINDZbiker3 said:No actually it doesnt have everything I want.
I WANT PEGS!
lovebunny said:so the leverage ratio is sooo high on it that it needs 2 shocks so that you dont blow the rear on evry compression?

Speedhub in the back, thats why its a jackshaft layout i guess.ChrisRobin said:edit: just noticed...no gears???
They will for sure...still sometines talk with people who's dreambike is a Karpiel Apocalypse....as much as I like my Army I can not see the good idea in the two shocks on the Apo....buildyourown said:Rohloff or other internal
Hey, if you can sell lifted trucks with 3 shocks on each wheel to rednecks, why can't you sell a DH bike with 2 shocks to uneducated bikers?
No, not nearly enough?JAB said:nuff said...
Until you slip off the pedals and de-grundle-ize yourself on the end of the seat-tube, and the tower clamp.zedro said:that seat/shock tower is an interesting concept.
Yea maybe its for the more heavy duty riders out there or just a high leverage ratio on the shockRhinofromWA said:Two shocks so they can spring it for the fatties? (like me)
Just bouncing ideas out there....
It's defiantely a Rohloff.. 1) there is no way you could mount a disc on a nexus unless you have some adapter that you've made since Shimano doesn't freakin make one!! (I also have a Nexus 8)... and 2) the Nexus is only in 132mm... and that bike MUST have more than 132..EVRAC said:I think it's a Nexus 7 hub. I've got an 8, but the big problem with both is how to mount the disk? I'm designing an adaptor and I'd love to see how he did it.
that Gemini was a 6 bar floating axle path bike, like the BCD 2x4..completly different concept that had nothing to do with leverage ratio.dhpimp said:It's defiantely a Rohloff.. 1) there is no way you could mount a disc on a nexus unless you have some adapter that you've made since Shimano doesn't freakin make one!!

2 shock idea has been done before - remember the ORIGINAL C'Dale Gemini that Gracia was riding - Swinger 6-way and a 3-way air to relieve the pressure.. In this case it definately looks like the design will NEED the two shocks. leverage ratio will be reallllllllly high!!
