This is the 1st gen MGU And it already beats all of the systems by 400% 1-No maintanance required 2- No more bulshit chain problems, chain slap, streatch or snap!!! 3 No more weak smashed dissallined deraileours and poor shifting problems!!!! 4- No more worn out cassetes and chainrings!!! The MOUNTAIN BIKE SHOULD SPEND 99% RIDING ON THE MOUNTAINS NOT 99% LOKING AFTER IT!!! THIS IS THE FUTURE THIS IS MOUNTAIN BIKING AND IT'S CALLE PINION MGU!!!! IT IS ALSO MY NEXT NEW EMTB

I have to clean the damn chain after every ride and this chore is killing my desire to shred. Now if only Rockshox can invent a ZEB that doesn’t require maintenance every month I can realize my dream of being a rider instead of being a part time mechanic.

I just purchased a Priority 600, and though it's not an eMTB.. man.. I LOVE belt drive! It's nearly silent when pedaling, it shifts crazy well, the gear range is phenomenal.. if you've never utilized a belt drive / transmission on a bike, you're missing out! My first eMTB will definitely be belt driven. Oh, and word of advice for anybody who looks to get anything belt driven.. DEFINITELY purchase at least a second belt, learn how to properly store it, and keep it handy.. these belts should handle a LOT of wear and miles, but you can't just pick one up in any bike shop like you can a chain.

Simplon is a boutique brand and put a lot of time and effort into the bikes (not saying Nicolai don't). In my opinion the Simplon also looks premium, but just in a different way. The rest is a personal choice. But for me it was the weight distribution. The Nicolai had a 'overall' weighty feel, which I think was the problem for me (exceptionally difficult do a wheelie on it without a lot of effort). However, this was not the case with the Simplon. I think it's down to the carbon frame on the Simplon. I was also able to do a decent bunny hop on the Simplon but when I tried it on the Nicolai it was just too hard. I just don't know why. Frame geometry perhaps? Either way I didn't get to test on a proper trail but if I was to translate what I experienced (albeit limited) there were slight nuances between the two bikes and I felt the Simplon felt more at home to my riding style. I spent a lot of time on them both and was torn between them. I didn't decide just on looks. Both are great choices but Simplon took the edge for me. 👍

When the Mondraker Guy in your last Podcast said he was skeptical about the Pinion MGU it was clear to me that the whole industry fears the impact of this technology. It will be interesting when other manufacturers are able to enter the integrated market. As a consumer I would certainly rather wait for a better selection of similar bikes instead of buying old derailed tech.

If the pro auto shift override is used too much the bike should alter the fixed cadence to a more suitable range for the rider , e.g. if you set cadence at 80 but are constantly down shifting it should set to 79 , then 78 and creep it until the rider mostly stops down shifting manually , an early up shift should alter it the other way , all averaged out over several mins of use . Gradient should also alter the cadence slightly IF you choose to have that happen . or the app should recommend your best cadence based on your actual demand .
@mikefize2279

It does do that. If you override the auto.shift in the pro mode, it analyses the new cadence and adjusts to it. So no more fighting with automatic shifting like with other systems.

I have an emtb (Commencal) I go through drivetrains as if they were going out of style. 2 cassettes and front rings a year and 3 to 4 chains a year. Ebikes are hard on drivetrains. I really like the idea of the internal gears and using a belt. With the higher price tag, I think I'd save money on replacing my drivetrain in the long run. When they come to my neck of the woods (West Coast Canada) to test ride, I'll be definitely testing one out.

I’ll tell you what happens when there’s a Bosch motor failure. We take your bike, verify that it’s warranty. We drop the motor and work out what the issue is, and if it can’t be fixed, then we go into the system and apply to Bosch to have it replaced, stating what it issue is. They then send us a new motor, and we send the old one back. In less than a week it’s replaced with a new replacement, and ready for the customer. I have no experience with Pinion though.

Yep I've heard lots of stories of excellent after sales service from Bosch. Had a little experience myself where I had to call them and found them to be great. Getting through to them was easy and the advice was sound. Don't think you can call anyone in relation to other brand motor on my other bike and I know they don't releas parts either. For this reason and the fact I can't afford pinion or that new DJI system my next bike will be a Bosch powered.

I love it, can we please get it with an 800 W hour battery, 1000 W peak motor with 120 N meters of torque.? Pretty please?

Well that's easy then, the pinion mgu has main battery's up to 950Wh, with an option for an extension battery of 530Wh. The strongest motor is 800 Watt and has 160nm torque in the lowest gears.

Its definitely a bike made for journalists. Flash looking and lots of features to talk about. Not what I or anyone really needs. Maintenance is about cost, and the MGU cost exceeds regular maintenance.

It's all good but if you can't get one how is anyone in Australia ever going to get one. The Pinion MGU is a great design but the coffee grinder uphill sound would kill the joy of riding for me. It's a shame someone doesn't get the Revonte system into production .My SUPER QUIET and smooth 1.3 Aluminium 90Nm Brose motor and a Rohloff hub is still my choice. E=Mtb²

No wonder it's expensive. 2 hours of CNC machining, welding TIG by hands . No doubt it's high quality, but you now, some Eastern guys could stolen the idea. Make stamping, casting, automatic welding lines and as a result cheaper in a great volumes

What is all this recent hype for overrun? Do we really need it? I think not. My latest bike has almost none (RM powerplay) and it is a way better climber for it. Less overrun = more control. The amount of times overrun would be beneficial is very limited for the average user. But overrun is the nr. 1 reason for destroying chains and cassettes. So if you are going to make overrun a standard feature at least have the user be able to select the amount, or allow it to be turned off.

@@achdumeineguete I’d take the Nicolai over the KTM. In England there’s not many places you can legally ride a dirt bike off road. On an ebike you can go wherever a normal bike can go. I’m fortunate enough to own a motorbike a normal mtb and an emtb and if I could only keep one I’d choose the emtb in a heartbeat. The Nicolai is undoubtedly very expensive but it is a boutique brand and not a mass produced item like a KTM. Hopefully cheaper brands will adopt the pinion MGU in the future.

Thats exactly why I wont buy an ebike, the technology is moving too fast at the moment. If i buy one it will be out of date within a couple years. My normal bike will hold up a lot longer. Maybe once the tech slows down I'll look into getting one.
