and another thing, I want my next bike built around the Sachs 3. Uphill gear, downhill gear and a flat trail gear... perfect!

Also just finished reading the paper, seems like good methodology and I'm also impressed that the difference in efficiency only about 2%. Fascinating.

wow! that does actually appear to be real research! how refreshing! In any case, why do SRAM and Santa Cruz feel the need to re-market the near 100 year old derailleur (and blatantly run down gearboxes) ? are they really worried about gearbox innovators who have sold a few hundred bikes taking market share?

Pinkbike Poll: Is The Gearbox Fantasy Dead?

I agree, the article misses the point that perhaps the main advantage of the gearbox in the Zerode is that it enables the super high pivot design and therefore, amazing suspension

WTF cares about weight? My trail bike weights a s*@tload and I only notice that when I have to lift it over a gate. Having suspension that works makes a much bigger difference to the ride.
