The Mountain Bike Accessories Blog

Here’s another cool mountain bike gadget!

I realize that this post is not about mountain bike accessories, however it does fall into the category of cool mountain bike gadgets which I love so I thought you would too.

This Outback chainless mountain bike by Dynamic Bycicles caught my eye.  Have you ever been pissed off trying to keep your chain clean and lubricated - I know I have.

Its lightweight as its made of aluminum and has a completely encased drive shaft inside aluminum tubing.

The driveshaft gearing operates similarly to the way your car driveshaft works.  Although it only has 8 speeds, the gearing is apparently set up with a range similar to a traditional 24 speed mountain bike.

I’m not sure if this thing would cut it out on the technical singletrack up the side of a mountain as I have never taken one out for a ride but but it would sure be great out on a Sunday ride with the family on light trails.

Just imagine, no straw grass or branches caught up in your chain or gears anymore and very little maintenance as you have trying to keep your exposed chain clean dry and lubed.
