Company History

Christini developed a mechanical 2WD system that routes power to the front wheel via telescoping shafts and gears, adding traction in sand, snow, and steep climbs. Offered as conversions and complete bikes, the technology earned fans in enduro, snowbike, and military applications. The achievement is engineering elegance: tangible grip gains with manageable weight and service requirements, expanding where two wheels can confidently go.
