8-Speed Advantage: MotoGears Transmission Shines at Freetech 50 in Poznań

We’re thrilled to see our MotoGears 8-speed transmission in action, thanks to Edwin Sweers, who recently competed in the Freetech 50 racing series in Poznań, Poland on his Racing special.

The 8-speed gearbox—developed in collaboration with Roland Wobben from Wobben Racing Team—delivers a clear advantage on the track. In the onboard footage Edwin shared, you can clearly see the difference compared to the standard 6-speed setup. The acceleration is smoother, faster, and more consistent—exactly what riders need to stay ahead in competitive racing.

This is exactly why we build our parts: to push performance further and give riders the edge they’re looking for.

Check out the video and see the difference for yourself!
