METROPOLIS BB cartridge Patterson BB-4000P
The Lifestyle Caution: a front shifting system this quick and positive will change the way you ride a bike forever! Although planetary and derailleur systems have been under development since the late1800’s, the Metropolis Patterson transmission is indeed a completely new approach. State of the art gear tooth profiles, 40% wider gear faces than our competition which gives more grease “squash” area for better lubrication, low drag seals and perfect alignment of forces combine to make this planetary crankset the most efficient ever. A unique, patented and very simple control mechanism enables instant shifting under any conditions. When FSA designers studied Sam’s early work in 2007, the promise of what was to come became clear. FSA engineers in USA and Asia spent hundreds of engineering manhours designing, prototyping, testing and refining the design. The crankset has also been extensively field tested by a wide variety of riders with some units approaching 5000 miles over several seasons. The result is the new Metropolis Patterson transmission, another major achievement from FSA. Riders will appreciate the completely sealed, smooth, sleek outward appearance, and intuitive, simple operation that allows any level of rider, from novice to expert, to shift at any time, under any load....effortlessly. The Patterson crank fits most frames with a threaded BB shell and fixed chain stays. Downtube cable routing is the most direct, but an optional cable stop bracket permits all cable routing schemes. It works with any shifter. The Patterson Crank is a simple and effective component that any non-technical rider can master quickly. Because of its ease of use the Patterson crank is sure to boost interest, ridership, and excitement in cycling. This revolutionary crank is beyond comparison and delivers the utmost in style and function. FSA saw the potential to offer a simple and effective front shifting component that any non-technical rider could master in just a moment. We saw the opportunity to help build excitement, interest, and ridership in the most important category for the future of our industry, urban cycling. The Patterson design achieves all of these objectives and more, in an elegant, state of the art package. We think that’s revolutionary.
