Nicolai to launch B-Boxx, a Hammerschmidt rival
Nicolai's B-Boxx
Nicolai unveiled their new Hammerschmidt rival, the B-Boxx, at this weekend’s in-house show at their factory in Lubbrechtsen, Germany.
They are keeping details of the planetary gear system, which has been developed in partnership with Bionicon, close to their chest.
But CEO Karlheinz Nicolai told us: “The current prototype of the B-Boxx works great! Super-smooth function, nice design and under-load shifting.”
It looks set to be available in a range of colours, but not for at least another year.

“We have to invest huge tooling costs and we have to do a lot of long-term durability testing,” said Nicolai.
“Because of this, there will be no mass production before winter 2010/2011.”
