Info - The Ride

It rides like no other bike on earth - a smooth, almost silent glide. Its the Ride by Ellsworth - the first bike to use the revolutionary gearless NuVinci continually variable planetary (CVP) drive.

Built from the finest materials, the Ride offers not only ground-breaking new technology in its drivetrain and frame geometry, but also a sleek, stunning design that will turn heads wherever you ride. No off-the-shelf parts would do when Ellsworth created this complete bike. The patent pending frame and fork, as well as many other components were specifically designed for the Ride.

Its a piece of art and a piece of history, all in one package.

NuVinci Explained

The Smooth Revolution Has Begun!
It's a revolution in drivetrain technology. A new way of transmitting mechanical power based on spheres instead of gears. The NuVinci continuously variable planetary (CVP) technology, an innovative new continuously variable transmission (CVT), is not only helping vehicle designers and component manufacturers improve performance, ride quality and capabilities in existing products. It's driving change and new designs never before thought possible.

The NuVinci CVP is a continuously variable and broadly applicable technology, with applications for almost any product using mechanical power transmission. NuVinci technology combines the advantages of a toroidal traction continuously variable transmission (CVT) with the advantages of a time-proven planetary gear arrangement. The NuVinci CVP is the only continuously variable transmission that has a planetary gearset's advantages of high torque density, versatility of use, inline shafts, and low production cost. As a result, NuVinci technology is the only technology potentially capable of replacing the planetary gear transmission – in every application – as virtually a plug-and-play replacement.
