News: SRAM Is Up To Something

SRAM has just released a new website teasing a "revolution in transmission technology" called the Truvativ Hammer Schmidt. We have some guesses as to what sort of a transmission system this is, but shall remain tight lipped for a little bit longer. Here's a hint though, you can probably forget about the front derailleur...

If you can speculate what the engineering gurus at SRAM have dreamt up for the future of MTB transmission technology leave a comment below and let us know what you think...

i'm hoping this will be a 2 option trans. one option can get rid of/change the front der. or a second option (which i am really really hoping for) gets rid of your rear der. and phase a nine speed tranny all incased up front. either way, if sram s making it, you know it's gonna be dope as shit.

Maybe a belt drive hooked up to a multi-geared rear hub (a la Rolfe). That would be my guess.
