The advantages of a LIFT-MTB dissociated crankset with freewheel on a tandem

Choosing the right drivetrain system for a tandem is essential for improving rider comfort and performance.
The dissociated crankset with freewheel option is becoming increasingly popular with tandem enthusiasts for its many advantages.

1. Independent pedaling for greater freedom

The main advantage of a dissociated crankset is that it allows each cyclist to pedal at his or her own pace.
Unlike a conventional tandem, where the two cyclists must be perfectly synchronized, the dissociated system, offered by brands such as pino or Da Vinci Designs, allows each rider to pedal independently.
This is particularly useful when one rider is stronger or more enduring than the other.
The system combines perfectly with standard shimano or sram derailleur drivetrains or Rohloff for tandem.

2. Long-distance comfort

This system proves highly advantageous on long outings.
If one rider wants to rest, he can stop pedaling for a while without affecting the other’s cadence.
Da Vinci Tandems offers systems equipped with a freewheel that allows the stoker (rear cyclist) to take a break without interfering with the pedaling of the rider (front cyclist). The idea is to offer the same thing on your own tandem.

3. Better management of technical land

On rough terrain or demanding routes, such as in the mountains, a dissociated crankset with freewheel enables smoother, more efficient management.
For example, brands such as Co-Motion Cycles have developed systems adapted to tandems to help overcome obstacles or adjust cadences without loss of control.

4. Ideal for cyclists of all abilities

For tandems where the cyclists are not at the same level, a separate crankset is an ideal solution.
The less experienced cyclist can pedal at his or her own pace without slowing down the other.
Tandems equipped with this technology, such as those offered by Santana Cycles or ventana tandem, allow everyone to enjoy the ride without frustration.

Dissociated crankset systems operate with freewheel only on the right-hand side.

In a nutshell

Opting for a dissociated crankset with freewheel on a tandem offers many advantages: more freedom, greater comfort, and an improved pedaling experience for both cyclists, whatever their level.
Well-known manufacturers such as Da Vinci Designs, Co-Motion Cycles and Santana Cycles offer original models equipped with this system.
