Check out Will's first part of the Zerode Katipo with Pinion + Gates Belt Drive Review.

I bought this bike for Will to test while he was on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to New Zealand. Will has been racing downhill since the early 2000s and is currently one of the fastest UK enduro racers in the Master's category.

About me: lifelong MTB rider and racer. Bad World Cup downhiller and a slightly better EWS racer. Qualified MTB coach and guide. 5 years as the European Technical Editor for Pinkbike, followed by some years of testing and prototyping for brands within the industry.

Now I've thrown everything into this project to create the best independent bike reviews in the world.

These products are bought at full retail price, and the reviews are funded 100% by competition ticket sales and donations. Buying a ticket not only gives you a chance to win cool bike stuff but also to support more and more independent reviews. This is a community effort, you can support these reviews, or get your information elsewhere which is always funded directly by the brands or through their advertising budgets...

Thanks to everyone for the support so far!

I need to build mine. Have had a Katipo frame and drivetrain for months now.

If you like the Katipo you must try the Taniwha, especially for bike park riding. Everything the same, but mixed wheels, so even more playful. There's a strong Zerode community in Christchurch NZ and we all love it when people come ride our bikes on our trails. Great to see this review and can't wait for Part 2

Watching the downhill ride I realize that you guys are either insane or immortal. One fall and its over.

I like the idea of the pinion gearbox with a belt drive.

Man one quick question regarding Pinion gearbox, what about the PoE ? I've heard it's to big (something like 15° ?!) Thanks for the review !
