Bülk Distance Gear Options

¿Qué bielas son las más adecuadas para ti?

En un velomóvil se quiere mantener el espacio lo más reducido posible, y hay una buena razón para ello. Cuanto más pequeño es el velomóvil, menos resistencia al aire tiene. Por supuesto, la aerodinámica completa es más compleja, pero en resumen: cuanto más pequeño es un objeto, mejor se mueve en el aire.

Por eso ofrecemos bielas más cortas en un velomóvil. Tenemos bielas de 140, 150 y 155 mm disponibles. Si eres más bajo y tienes una talla de zapato más pequeña, puedes elegir las bielas de 155 mm. Si tienes piernas más largas y una talla de zapato más grande, es mejor optar por las bielas de 140 mm. Podemos aconsejarte sobre esto: rellena tus datos y podremos ayudarte.

Schlumpf Mountain Drive con Multicranks

Capacidad de escalada mejorada: la reducción significativa del desarrollo permite un pedaleo más fácil en pendientes pronunciadas.

Mecanismo de cambio: el cambio se realiza presionando botones situados a ambos lados del eje de la biela, accionados con el talón del ciclista.

Multicranks: tiene por defecto tres posiciones para la longitud deseada de la biela.

Nota: si eliges Schlumpf Mountain Drive con Multicranks, no necesitas seleccionar un plato pequeño en el configurador.

A wide range of gears or a low range of gears?

We don’t know if you’ve just started with cycling a velomobile or if you’ve already been using the velomobile for many years to commute or cycle long distances, but please take the time to read the following and if you think we’re giving wrong advice, let us know, we would like to learn from your experiences.

A wide range of gears or a low range of gears?

If you live in a flat area you don’t want to have a wide range of gears. You want a cassette with a low spread, in order you can shift gears with small steps, so you can find the right cadence, which is the best for you.
If you live in a hilly area or mountainous area, you need a bigger spread of gears, otherwise you can’t climb the hill you want.

We have made a table for you with which gears you can cycle at what speed.
To make the table easier to understand we fixed a couple of things. It is the best to have a cadence about 90 RPM, if you have a cadence below 90 RPM you can have a higher chance of injuries of your knees. This is a velomobile but also a conventional bicycle.

For the Bülk we have a rear wheel of 584 and we take a 28mm rear tire for the calculations.
