  1. Downhill Mountain Bike Gearbox Josh Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  2. Problem Statement Problem Statement: When subjected to the abusive environment of downhill mountain biking, current drive train designs perform unreliably, require constant maintenance, and are easily damaged by a wide variety of external factors. Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  3. Proposed Solution Proposed Solution: To remedy these problems, it is our intention to design and construct an internal gearbox transmission. Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  4. Design Goals The final design will take into account: • Max rider input of 115 N-m at 90 RPMs • Existing gear ratios of current drive trains (2.1-3.3) • High impacts resulting from crashing • G-CON 2.0 mounting standards • Sealing against mud, snow, and dust • Industry standard shifters, cranks, and bottom brackets • Targeting racers accustomed to spending between $4000 and $7000 for a complete bike Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  5. Gearbox vs. Current Drive System UPDATE ME Gearboxes offer: • Ingress Protection • Separate sensitive surfaces from exposure to elements • Contain lubrication within a controlled environment • Impact Protection • Encloses potentially fragile components within a protective case • Low Maintenance • Less frequent lubrication and tuning required • Less repairs due to impacts • Improved Center of Gravity • Mass of shifting mechanisms (chain guide, derailleur, and cassette) moved to a lower and more central point in the frame • Improved handling Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  6. What is Downhill Mountain Biking? Downhill Races Involve: • High Speeds: • Up to 50+ mph • Natural Obstacles: • rock gardens • boulders • roots • steep terrain • Stunts: • drop-offs over 10 vertical ft • gap jumps of over 35 feet Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  11. State of the Industry: Market Research • Online Study: “How many Derailleurs did you break in 2007?” • 192 responses via forums on www.bustedspoke.com and www.ridemonkey.com • 47% of riders broke at least one derailleur in 2007 • 2 Pro riders broke more than 10 derailleurs Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  12. State of the Industry: Early Prototypes • First internal tranmission mountain bike prototypes introduced in the late 1990s • First bikes used existing technologies modified into centralized locations • Multi-speed hubs • Derailleur-in-a-box Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis

  13. Frame weldment Crank Input Bolt pattern State of the Industry: Future Growth • Creation of G-CON 2.0 standard • Growing number of frame manufacturers designing gearbox compatible frames • Interfacing between gearboxes and frames becoming more standardized Three current prototype designs that conform to the G-CON standards G-CON 2.0 Gearbox Interface Design Team: Joshua Filgate, Jesse Kuhn, Morgan Misek, Jay Seiter, Michael Witonis
