PINION SMART.SHIFT IN DOWNHILL WORLDCUP

16. July 2023

Our Pinion Smart.Shift technology caused a sensation last year with the Stromer ST7. In the future, the electric shift control will also be seen in combination with other e-bikes in the E-Speed and E-Light categories, as well as for the first time as a version with its own power supply for normal Pinion bikes without motor assistance.

For the past two years, the Swiss professional team Gamux Racing has been relying on the advantages of our gearbox technology in professional cycling and is developing its own downhill bikes around the central gear shift.

For the start of the 2023 racing season, Gamux started with electric triggering,
thus subjecting the shifting unit to the ultimate endurance test. The TE1 Trigger Shifter and the new semi-automatic shift modes have proven to be a real step forward.

The development of series MTBs from other manufacturers for the 2024 season are in full swing. We will keep you up to date!
