Bike at Bedtime 🚲🛏️ Is bigger really better? Victor Campenaerts definitely thought so when he decided to equip his Ridley with a 62-tooth chainring. That's not the whole story, though, as it was the rear hub that was the star of this show...
Victor Campenaerts' meaty Ridley Noah has been in the headlines for a week now, since the Belgian professional cyclist took it to the Spring Classics with a rather eye-catching setup. Let's have a closer look at the bike...with a whopping 62-tooth chainring. Yes, just the one.
The secret, concealed party weapon that Campenaerts’ Ridley Noah debuted to the pro peloton was none other than the Classified Powershift hub. This rear hub, which has been designed by a Belgian company Classified, in essence, removes the need for a front derailleur with the use of internal gears. Hence, it's also known as the “the front derailleur killer”.
Classified CTO and inventor of the Powershift hub, Roëll van Druten, goes even further praising the system: “We at Classified have long believed that the traditional 2x drivetrain system, i.e. 2 chainrings and a front derailleur, is not efficient enough.
