Recently I read abuot the Pinion P1 gear-box for the first time. It is a new bike gear system which is located in the bottom bracket (region). In contrast to the Schlumpf drives or similar products, we are not talking about 2 or 3 gears but 18 of them. Read More

I just returned from a trip to our former home town Hamburg with my family. We lived in the most beautiful town of Germany before we had to move to Jülich 1.5 years ago for professional reasons. We visited friends and I worked in my former institute for a week to proceed with my PhD-thesis (which is now close to being finnished). Not a single km of riding and seldomly online for three weeks. Odd but relaxing (apart from the work in the institute;-)) Now enjoy new posts on bentblog.de Psst… there is something new coming from HP-Velotechnik. See video after the break… Read More
Christian von Ascheberg achieved 1000km after 19h 27min! He broke Jeff Nielsen’s record (1109km) after 21h 36min! This means he may go farther than 1200km in 24h!!! *Update* Apart from Christian also Charles Henry (fully faired) and Andreas Kraus (Partly faired, Bülk) are on the track. Charly will also be faster than Jeff’s record, if Christian stopped now, Charly would be able to achieve the new 24h record. *Update 2* I just received the information that the preliminary 24h distance is 1219km – 110km more than the former record by Jeff. *Update 3* Final result on www.droplimits.de: 1223,25km in 24h by Christian von Ascheberg (an average of 50,804km/h). Charly rode 1159,18km in the same time. The distance of Andreas Kraus, who also finished the 24h on his Bülk, is listed with 489.3km, but this seems to be wrong, the value should be higher. *Update 4* Andreas Kraus drove 815,5km. Thanks to all “Sources” at the track! Christian von Ascheberg set a new 12h world record. After 11 hours he had already reached the old distance. After 12h he reached approx. 670km and is now aiming at the 24h record.Congratulations for the incredible success and good luck for the next 12 hours. Some other drivers, among them Daniel Fenn, had to give up due to material or body problems. Find more information at www.droplimits.de or here in the near future. *Update* The correct number was 664,97km in 12 h – amazing.
