lookng for low maintenance??
OLSEN BIKES ARE CARBONDRIVE COMPATIBLE:
At OLSEN HQ I put a lot of emphasis on designing the RocknRollout Dropout to work with GATES Carbondrive BELTS. I have developed this on and off over 5years getting the micro tension just right...
When it comes to bicycle drivetrains, Gates Carbondrive is the gold standard for low maintenance, reliable performance. Unlike a traditional drivetrain, Gates Carbondrive belts are incredibly strong, lightweight, and silent. They require no lubrication and are impervious to weather and dirt.
Gates Carbondrive belts are made from a proprietary carbon fiber cord that’s strong enough to withstand the rigors of off-road riding. The cords are woven into a polyurethane belt that’s backed by Kevlar fibers, making it highly resistant to stretching, tearing, and abrasion. The carbon fiber cord also helps to reduce vibration and noise, making for a much smoother ride.
Gates Carbondrive belts are designed to fit most bikes, including both road and mountain bikes. They’re remarkably easy to install and maintain, making them ideal for commuters and weekend warriors alike. Once installed, a Gates Carbondrive belt can last several years with minimal maintenance. All you need to do is occasionally inspect the belt for signs of wear and tear and replace it when necessary.
Gates Carbondrive belts are a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable, low-maintenance drivetrain.
VERSATILITY OF OLSEN BIKES
ROCKNROLLOUTS
The RocknRollout Dropout is at the heart of the OLSEN frame design. We have focused our design around the rear derailleur dropout, but taken it further. Most bicycle frames have replaceable dropouts, but they do not allow for anything other than a derailleur. This idea came from the fact that UK riders often have a winter bike, which is often single-speed.
