I remember somebody posting a picture a while ago a of an insane downhill bike. I believe it was German and was gusseted to high hell. It also had an interesting drive train. IIRC it had a short chain on the right side that ran in to some sort of transmission and then was a shaft drive on the opposite. Any idea of what bike I am thinking of? I can't find anything close.

EDIT: Because the Germans have no clue about proportions...
