Rohloff E14
Electronic version of the popular Rohloff hub gearbox. Instead of shifting with a grip, which requires a relatively large amount of force, you shift with two levers that function as electronic buttons. The Rohloff E14 is directly connected to the Bosch electric drive, so the two systems work seamlessly together. However, it doesn't provide an automatic shifting!
An incredibly reliable now legendary 14-speed gear hub manufactured in Germany. Even inn severe conditions, Rohloff can withstand mileages of over 100,000 km (62,000 miles), and there are even known cases of people who have traveled more than 200,000 km (125,000 miles) with Rohloff. Its advantages include not only minimum maintenance requirements and wide gear range but also a minimal chance of damage to the hub in an accident. You can also shift with your bike at a standstill, and unlike other gear hubs, this one is fixed to the bike using a quick-release fastener that significantly simplifies rear wheel removal in case of a puncture.
We recommend Rohloff if you plan to travel several thousand kilometers/miles per year on your bike if you frequently find yourself in a sludgy or dirty environment, and if the lifetime of all components is ultimately key to you.
In case of TRIcon and Ti-FLY trikes, we recommend Rohloff gear shifting mainly to those who will frequently fold them to their smallest size while removing the rear wheel or maybe also the tread with crank arms (ideal for placing the rike in a transport case).

Range: 526%
Shift control: Grip shift
Necessary maintenance: Oil change every 5000 km (3125 miles)
Note 1: All of our frames have the so-called Rohloff OEM rear fork dropouts. This is why we use the Rohloff in version with OEM Axle Plate, which is the neatest and the most professional way of embedding the Rohloff hub in a bike frame. Also, the bike's look is not affected by any unsightly torque retainers.
Note 2: We use an external gearbox for all of our bikes.
