## About Effigear

Effigear is a French manufacturer located in Maclas, specializing in high-performance internal mechanical gearboxes for bicycles and e-bikes.

Founded in 2012, the company emerged from the vision of rider Guy Cavalerie, who aimed to replace traditional derailleur systems. Effigear manages the entire production process in-house, ensuring quality with a "Made in France" commitment. The company's flagship product, the Effigear Mimic, features a 9-speed gearbox with a 469% gear range and is designed for quick response and shifting under load.
