NuVinci N380 with connuously variable transmission
The Performance MN380 is equipped with a NuVinci
N380 hub. The N380 is a maintance free, connuously
variable transmission hub that shi stepless from
the lowest to the highest gear. This enables you to
nd the ideal cadence under all circumstances (70
rotaons of the crank per minute is best for the system
performance). The NuVinci N380 hub is known for it’s
impressive gear rao of 380% (0,5 underdrive and 1,9
overdrive).
Controlling it is easily done by turning the gripshier
at the grip on the rightside. You can always shi, even
while standing sll. However, if the bike is in moon
during shiing it will feel a bit easier, and you can shi
between the enre gear range only if the wheels are
turning. In the display of the grip shier you can see
the current gear rao. The N380 has a surprising display
with a small cyclist that seems to move either over a hill
(low gear) or move over a at surface (high gear).
