Transmission

Mountain Bike Transmission is important to the efficiency and performance of both you and your bike.

The lighter the components the less your bike weighs.  Your chainset weight effects your ability to turn it (pedal).  The lighter this is combined with higher tolerances in the machining of the parts and you will ride and climb faster.

For Freeride and Downhill mountain bikes then a strong, compact and robust drivetrain is required.  Bomb proof cranks for those big flat landings and rock strikes are essential.
