Yes, now I understand. I saw this thing and didn't bother to read that its rohloff inside.
This is a nice adaptation of the rohloff hub as a front gearbox.
This is what I was looking to find, but, hehe, maybe 1/10 of the price
But it certainly nice to see people adapt known technology and use it differently then intended.
Why does it weights 6.3 kg? My guess it related to downhill where everything should be very stiff.
Thanks,
