most confidence inspiring
Our patented PUMA suspension platform is the core of our gearbox bikes. It makes the Kodiak fast, extremely confidence inspiring and mind-boggling versatile.
Thanks to our multilink design we could tweak the leverage ratio independently from other kinematic factors. Something other brands can only dream of.
gearbox drivetrain
The Pinion C1.12 gearbox drivetrain gives you a superior, perfectly graduated gear range of 600% together with silence and minimal maintenance.
No matter if you ride with a chain or carbon belt, if you shift electronically or with a trigger shifter, shifting is instant and extremely fast.
next level riding
Experience the quick line selection, railing corners and increased stability in technical sections.
The central positioning of the gearbox in the frame reduces the unsprung mass and increases rear suspension sensitivity. This results in a responsive, lively ride feel and increased grip on every trail surface, giving your maximum confidence.
Pinion’s magnesium gearbox is almost maintenance free and eliminates the risk of bending or breaking your derailleur.
chain drive
All our gearbox bikes come with a chain drive. We have done tests with belt drive, but most of our riders later made the conversion back to chain, as it feels more active, more efficient and works perfectly under all circumstances.
what our riders say
Carlo, Mexico
“I took the Kodiak to a bike trip to the Mexican Whistler in very rough and very long demanding trails and the bike worked perfectly. In Mexico City at my local trails, I managed to get down my descend times and now I am on the top 5 on Strava on some lines. So, I’m very happy with the Kodiak!”
Graham, UK
“Last year I purchased a Kodiak 130 gearbox mtb. It replaced my Santa Cruz 5010. What a cracking replacement it is. As a riding experience it’s ability down hill is second to none, sticking to the ground like shit to a blanket, on the twisties it is extremely nimble. I beat all my downhill PB’s on Strava the first time I rode them on the Kodiak 130″
Greg, US
“I love riding and I do love what you’re doing with Instinctiv. The care and quality of the bike is first rate. And the suspension is absolutely the best I’ve ever seen.”
Sebastian, Germany
“Today I did the setup and first testride on the Kodiak 140 and I can’t stop grinning! Besides the great design, color and technology, I am also fascinated of the handling characteristics: The weight of the bike seems to disappear on the trail, the low COG generates active handling and huge traction.”
