G3 Downhill

Experience the next level of downhill performance with the Zerode G3, a game-changing bike that redefines durability, efficiency, and control.

High-Pivot Design for Superior Suspension

The Zerode G3 adopts the high-pivot suspension system that elite downhill racers swear by, delivering exceptional traction, improved small bump compliance, and increased stability through technical terrain. The high-pivot design reduces chain growth, enabling a smoother, more controlled ride in the gnarliest conditions.

Belt-Driven Pinion Gearbox: Strength Meets Simplicity

Say goodbye to chains, derailleurs, and cassettes! The Zerode G3 uses a belt-driven Pinion gearbox rated for an impressive 10,000km. This system is 10x stronger than a traditional chain, requires zero lubrication, and keeps your drivetrain clean, quiet, and low-maintenance.

• Centralized Weight: The gearbox is perfectly positioned under the rider's feet, ensuring a lower center of gravity and improved bike handling.
• Lighter Rear End: By eliminating the rear derailleur, cassette, and associated hardware, the rear wheel is over 1lb lighter, resulting in a more active and responsive suspension for unparalleled ride quality.

Narrow Rear End for Precision Handling

The G3 boasts a narrower 12x142mm rear end, compared to the standard 157mm found on most downhill bikes. This compact design enhances handling in tight corners and technical descents, while reducing noise and drag for a more refined riding experience.

Built for World Cup Performance

Many World Cup downhill teams add weight to their bikes to improve stability and traction, strategically placing it under the bottom bracket. The Zerode G3 incorporates this philosophy naturally, with the gearbox’s centralized weight providing unmatched balance and control.

Why Choose the Zerode G3?

• Unmatched Durability: Belt-driven systems are stronger and longer-lasting than chains, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
• Low Maintenance: Eliminate the hassle of cleaning and lubing your drivetrain.
• Enhanced Suspension: A lighter rear end means better suspension performance and a more connected ride.
• Quieter Rides: No chain slap or derailleur noise—just pure focus on the trail.

The Zerode G3 isn’t just a bike—it’s a revolution in downhill engineering. For riders who demand performance, durability, and innovation, the G3 is the ultimate choice.
