Ive been thinking, what if you removed the cranks and chain then used a saul to propel the bike down the road. Could it be done. How could it be made? Bicycle rolling resistance and sail size? ....feel free to chime in on this disscussion.
Dont have to be a Schwinn or cantilever frame. Guys on Scramblers were f.a.s.t. in the 70's and early 80's. Took me 36 years to realize those guys I raced against had the two speed kickback hubs, which were sanction. outlawed. Show your speed machines!
My brother is into something called Steampunk, a fictional existance based on techology and steam, naturally i thought about steampunk rat rods. anybody else build anything steampunk? lets post pics.
Is anyone up for a brainstorming session about a building a custom stick shift for a shimano nexus hub? is it possible or has someone done that here already.
