- Finally time for a new bike. I went for the same same but different. It's time to say goodbye to my old Zerode Katipo and hello to my new one! I am super excited to get this new build out and get it dirty!
For a full list of specs check out the Blog - newzealandmoun...
This is the new work horse that I will be running trips and MTB lessons on along with various backcountry missions!

Finally stepped up to the 29er
My last one was a 29er and my Enduro before that. Straight there from 26! Or are you finally on a29er?
@@NewZealandMountainBiking my bad hahaha
lucky bugger! Happy trails
So stoked!!
Liking the idea of a Zerode bike with the gearbox.
Loving it! It just makes sense
Man I’d love to try out a pinion drive one of these days! Sweet bike brother congratulations🤙🏼
Thanks mate! If you go onto their website they have a program called Zerode World where you might be able to sort out a little ride on one. Taking the weight of the cassette and derailleur off the wheel and putting it under your feet is a game changer. Not to mention reduced maintenance and instantaneous shifting. Worth looking into for sure!
@@NewZealandMountainBiking heck yeah man I’ll for sure look into that!! Thanks for the info!
Wow what a nice looking bike Jamie looking forward to seeing you on the trails on it
Me too! It rides so nice! Just got out for a quick lap in Wainuiomata 🤙😍 loving it!!
The absolute dream!
Chur the bro! That bike looks AMAZING!
So stoked on it
Fundamental piddles. Got it
Hahaha 😂😂 you know it!
Great looking bike
Cheers mate
Been riding my Katipo for a couple months now. I'll never go back to a chain and derailleur. Gorgeous bike. But The burgundy is prettier. ;)
The burgundy does look pretty good
love my katipooooo
🙌🙌
I think the grip shift would be the hardest part to get used to. I wonder if they'll create any other options to run a regular grip. nice bike
Thanks 🙏 I love it!
That’s a valid thought about the shifter. That’s actually one of my favorite things about the system because I can change multiple gears at a time either direction at the flick of your wrist. And because you get a perfect shift, your alway in gear, even if you do manage to accidentally shift (which I can’t remember the last time that happened to me). The thing that you do get better at over time is shifting while pedaling. Because you can’t shift under load you need to back off the power and shift at the same time. As you get better at this you can actually shift at the top of your stroke without hearing your freehub spin at all. The gains to rear wheel traction and time (and money) saved on maintenance make it worth adapting and learning the different way of shifting. Let me know if you have any other questions I’m happy to answer them for you.
@@NewZealandMountainBiking They have the "pinion smart shift" now, normal c1.12 with sensors and electronics in there so you can shift with a wireless trigger shifter that lets you shift under load even (it knows when your crank arms are vertical and under no pressure)
@@eaze7324 Hmm... my first thought was it would be smart shift but is that because this bike is the c1.9 not c1.12? Or is Smart shift not available yet for any build?I heard that it would be available in 2024
Nice Ride! are all Zerodes twist shifters?
Thanks! Yes they all come standard with the grip shift. There is a set up that cinque do with paddle shifters for the Pinion gearbox. But in my opinion the grip is all good. I never accidentally shift and can always grab enough gears when I need them.
My dream bike, what was the price of that?
It’s so sweet! That’s close to $12k
I've been looking at these. Are they really worth the price? What about drive train maintenance / repairs.
I reckon. Check this out ruclips.net/video/c8oTDZ5-JSU/видео.html
And there aren't many drive trains with a 5 year warranty like a pinion does if any.
Yeah they do look great, but I can't justify spending that (yet, hah). I ended up going with a 2022 Carbon Giant Reign Adv Pro 2 with Zeb Fork for a third of the price of a Zerode. Hard to compete with those prices I guess.
Weight? Did I miss how much?
Last I checked, full water bottle and all - 17kg 👌
Can anyone get that sandy colour, or just special order
That’s a stock colour at the moment. This bike is soo good, 9 months down the track with a few thousand km on it and its feeling so good. I just put some XC tires on it for fun and it's so fast!
I couldn't afford the old Katipo, and still can't afford the new one. Or a used one 😔
Keep your eye out. Bikes are a pretty expensive piece of kit. The zerodes age really really well too so they don’t often come up for cheap
Hello, what's your height and bike size
I'm 177cm and I am on the 475 (large)
Do the belts have a join?
No they are a closed loop
