Chainless (Kardan) Bicyle

It was love at first sight, when I discovered a Biomega Copenhagen [1] chainless bicycle at the Velokurier-Laden [2] about two years ago. But one cannot always buy what he likes 😉 Anyway, the other day I started to look around what the chainless bicycle market currently looks like [3].

There are some Shops that provide one or more models suited with the kardan-transmission. The transmission is mostly produced by Taiwan Sussex chainless transmission bicycle manufacturer, although I could not figure out a price for the transmission.

What really astonished me is the fact, that there is a Chinese company called Shanghai Zhimei Rolleu-Chainless Bicycle Co.,Ltd which has a full set of bicycles with chainless transmission but not even one European dealer listed on their website [4]. So, if I was a bicycle dealer in Switzerland, I would at least try some of their models. Let me know if You start importing them 😉
