Review: Zerode G3 - A Belt Driven, Gearbox Equipped DH Bike

@mooreoutdoors Zerode went with this specification for a few reasons that I'll relay: 1. Since the G3 runs on single speed drive, the 142mm hub improves the spoke bracing angles, which are also symmetrical, so there is no need to dish the wheel. 2. That also allows the width of the dropouts to be narrow for increased ground clearance. 3. Has a marginally lighter unsprung mass than a 148 hub. 4. Single speed hubs are more common in 142 than 148. 5. It's the same hub used on their enduro bike, the Taniwha, although that bike uses a 29" rear wheel.

Bike Check: Evan Wall's Haro Greer Prototype Enduro Bike

@TEAM-ROBOT: That's something I pointed out in our First Ride article last year. https://www.pinkbike.com/news/first-ride-classifieds-electronic-dual-ratio-powershift-hub.html Evan was thinking along the same lines and mentioned the team might experiment with a 10-speed setup soon.
