Die Gesamtübersetzung und die Gangabstufung des Getriebes entsprechen einer 27 Gang Kettenschaltung ohne deren Störanfälligkeit durch Steine und Äste. Mit 167 mm Federweg am Heck, einer Kompatibilität für 150 bis 170 mm Federgabeln und seiner soliden, steifen Schwinge ist das TFR in jeder Art von Gelände schonungslos einsetzbar. (Abb.: Prototyp) The biggest advantage of the Nucleon TFR as an enduro frame is the protected G-Boxx shifting in impassable, rough terrain and in bad weather. The overall range of gears of the G-Boxx is equivalent to a 27 gear derailleur setup but avoids the derailleur’s susceptibility to damage from rocks and roots. The wide, rigid, swingarm with 167 mm of rear travel, as well as compatibility for forks of up to 170 mm, means that the TFR is good for hardcore usage in any kind of terrain.

Hoshi said: „We’ve come full circle now.“ In 1995, more then 10 years ago, we became famous due to the victory of Leigh Donovan at the worlds in Kirchzarten. And the sun is shining ...... and the sun is a circle. Many thanks to the SRAM-NICOLAI team and the UFO-NICOLAI BMX team at this spot. The European downhill championship took place in Greece, the home of Euclid. Who the f**k was Euclid ?? Keeping it short he is the Circle master. A circle is the set of all points at a fixed distance, called the radius, from a given point, the centre. A race victory can just be reached, if all points are set at the right place. It came to me that the concept of the circle is very relevant to Nicolai. A circle is very efficient. It just uses the minimum length of a closed line in order to loop the maximum area. This so called isoperimetric property of a circle is also the reason for the use of round tubing on the downtube of Nicolai bikes. You get maximum torsional stiffness with regard to
