    So stoked to be working with Neko on the Frameworks project for over 2 years now. His work ethic and drive is unmatched. Congrats Neko on all you have achieved. We are simply the machines behind your designs. 🔥🔥🔥

    How is the ochain different from a low engagement hub?

    • @BowzKnows
      @BowzKnows 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Similar.... But why would you go with a low engagement hub when you can run ochain? Low engagement not idea for a high torque sprint where you want to put the power down immediately.

    • @vlbz
      @vlbz 17 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      @@BowzKnows ochain has a deadzone too, exactly like a low engagement hub. Looking into it there is a small difference. The hub engagement points are at fixed intervals, so one might actually get instant engagement by chance (and also more kickback). Ochain guarantees the free-play every time.

    You can't even currently buy this bike. You can put 50% down and pay for the other half when the bike ships. Problem is, they don't even have a date lined up, so who knows when you'll even get the bike.

    Ochain is solving a (almost) non existing problem. Watch "How Your Chain Interacts With Your Suspension - The Tuesday Tune 31" and "What is PEDAL KICKBACK?...Should you care?" for the explanation. Except when you lock your rear wheel (which anyway you should not do) or have big impacts at very low speeds, the suspension can move and the chain can grow WITHOUT engaging the hub, so no pedal kickback. Pinkbike is pushing a myth created by the fact that people confuse a demo with a static bike with what is happening when the bike is ridden.

      Human mind and senses are incredibly easy to fool, hence science uses methods like randomized double blind experiments.

    • @GrigoryRechistov
      @GrigoryRechistov 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I'd say the proof should be in the pudding. If a series of blind tests demonstrates that there is a difference in the suspension operation (for better or for worse is the next question) that a rider can reliably detect, then some sort of effect is most likely real. If there is no correlation, or only some people feel the difference, well, that would be another thing to explore further.
      But such experiment is not very expensive to organize, and it will be reliably repeatable and applicable to all sorts of suspension designs and race tracks.
      So really no point in theorizing for too long when we have physical embodiments for testing the hypothesis on our hands. That journalists cannot carry out and document a proper experiment is another sad thing.
