NEW.GTRO 3:SPEED INTERNAL GEARBOX CHAIN.SET
£455.00
An updated, compact front-mounted 3-speed gearbox, made in the UK, that replaces a traditional triple chainring with a cleaner, tougher drivetrain. Because the gearing sits at the crank, the chainline stays straight, so there's no front derailleur, no chain rub or chain drop, and much less maintenance.
Gearbox
- The ratios are 1:1, 1:1.43 and 1:1.79.
- First gear is direct drive; second and third are step-ups.
- It shifts cleanly into first from a standstill or under load.
- Shifts are faster and simpler than with a front derailleur.
- There's no chain rub or chain drop, even with a rear derailleur.
- It's low maintenance and needs no lubrication.
- It has been tested on-road, off-road, in the lab and in winter.
- It comes in gloss black as standard.
Fit and compatibility
- It suits trekking, hybrid, urban, single-speed, city and folding bikes, plus light off-road use, e-bikes, trikes and light touring builds.
- It's not for race MTB, downhill or dirt jump.
- It has a 5-bolt spider for 130 BCD chainrings.
- It fits most frames with an English BSA bottom bracket, and needs no frame modifications.
- The bottom bracket shell's outer diameter must not exceed 45.6mm.
- It also fits most popular folding bikes.
- Use it with a trigger or twist shifter.
- It works with a normal rear drivetrain, including most rear systems (derailleur, gear hub, single-speed hub or rear motor), but not fixed-gear wheels.
- With an internal gear hub, check the hub maker's smallest permitted front chainring.
- It's the easiest front gearbox to fit, no harder than a normal chainset.
