| One-Off is pleased to announce that we have begun production of our all terrain hand cycle. This is the first hand cycle to bridge the gap between today's road only hand cycles and the chair-lift dependent downhill racers. With bicycle cranks for propulsion and a steering similar to the downhill racers, this vehicle can climb Mt. Snow and descend at speed with safety. We have achieved our prime goal of developing an arm-powered vehicle that is analogous to the modern mountain bike. And don't forget, a mountain bike with street tires is a great road bike. |

XShifter converts ANY bike to wireless shifting
in just a few minutes utilizing your existing drive train components. It's affordable, reliable AND it can be VOICE ACTIVATED! YES...VOICE ACTIVATED - NO HANDS!
Any derailleur, cassette or chain ring. Any manufacturer. Any handcycle. Any recumbent cycle! (see some of the YouTube footage links herein). |
| The Combo kit will work with any 2X drivetrain (front and rear derailleur) Some photos above show actual applications on my own Top End Force handcycle (been using it since winter 2017) and a recent customer we installed on his kneeler Top End handcycle. These are the most difficult and demanding applications for mechanical shifting. If it can work on a handcycle, it can work anywhere!! |
| A demonstration video of the XShifter on a handcycle. The electronic pickup unit is positioned on the right fork near the brakes while the cyclist uses his mobile phone for voice commands (app' available via usual options). You'll see the deraileur (gear changing mechanism) move up and down according to his command. Brilliant. Affordable too. |
| “I haven’t seen anywhere else with trails built to be sure that adaptive riders with adaptive bikes could ride from top to bottom. We’re so right at the beginning of this whole thing.” – Tara Llanes, former champion mountain-bike racer.

| After his injury, Cole Hoodicoff never expected to be able to rip down a rugged mountain trail. That all changed when SCI BC Kootenays Peer Coordinator Josh Dueck invited the Castlegar teenager to a mountain bike camp.
Cole Hoodicoff had been down some hills in his 18 years. Down the Red Mountain ski hill that left him a T2 paraplegic at 11 years old. Down the rocky road of adjusting to teenage life with an SCI in small town BC.
Hoodicoff wasn’t thinking about any of that on a rainy day this past July, when he edged his way over the lip of the Spine, BC’s first purpose-built adaptive mountain-bike (aMTB) trail. Read on for more...
He had been invited to try adaptive mountain biking with a small group of SCI BC Peers. While he’d seen plenty of regular mountain biking videos of riders ripping down trails on two wheels with precision and style, he imagined that what he was about to try would be something much tamer.

| The trail has been designed for beginners and is focused on being "Adaptive Sports Accessible" where mountain hand trikes can be used by disabled riders. This trail offers many different challenges for a beginner to get introduced to trail riding: Short 1.1 mile loop allowing for many laps to practice, moderate switchback descents & climbs, a bermed turn, very subdued rock gardens, a short bridge crossing, etc(See trail photos). Minimal elevation change - total ascent per lap is 65ft. |
| FOURCROSS is an exciting sport which utilizes the growing popularity of lift assisted mountain bike parks. The Tourism Associations and the Resort Industries have been very supportive of lift assisted mountain bike park growth.
