We first featured the Classified Powershift MTB 2-speed hub in April when our own Guy Kesteven saw the system at the Bike Connection event, but I recently had the chance to put it to the test on my local trails. The system has been around for a while now on the road and gravel scene, it even appeared at this year's Tour de France and multiple world tour road races, which is quite an achievement in the steadfastly traditional skinny tire world. Classified has won many fans in the drop bar world, getting 4.5 stars in our Classified Powershift gravel review, but this is the first dedicated MTB version. I was very excited to get this on test, so how did it perform in a sometimes frozen, often wet, and muddy UK?
