Description
The Hobie MirageDrive 180 (MD180) is an efficient and durable pedal system for Hobie kayaks with forward and reverse capabilities. With a simple pull lever, users can easily switch between forward and reverse modes, enabling seamless maneuvering in any direction. The MD 180 comes standard with Glide Technology for enhanced efficiency and reduced drive wear. It also features Hobie’s legendary Kick-Up Fins that automatically retract when they encounter underwater obstacles or groundings, preventing damage and ensuring a smooth and carefree ride. Exploring shallows or beaching? Simply push one of the pedal cranks all the way forward and the fins retract up against the hull.
The MD180 comes standard with the most efficient fin design on the market with its patented Square Fin technology, providing unparalleled performance and maneuverability. Equipped with ARC cranks that adjust with the push of a button, this system is comfortable for users of all sizes from kids to tall adults. The MirageDrive 180 is available with either standard fins or the larger Turbo Fins for increased speed and power. Hobie’s clever “click and go” design also makes the MD180 backward compatible with many older Hobie kayak models with standard Mirage wells for those looking to upgrade an older MirageDrive unit.
