My new bike technology company... Must see sprocket!
It's based off of the oval sprocket which was based off a video i made years ago...
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK. If you do not know how gear sizes work, rather different shaped gears its basically just about the distance from the center which creates more or less work for the engine. I am truly looking forward to my next phase which is the pedal arm and making that a masterpiece. Of course I want to make the entire bicycle into a modern masterpiece but do not have the resources yet. If you like it feel free to email me or following me on twitter. http://www.karbunfive.com/services.html |

If you like it feel free to email me or following me on twitter. http://www.karbunfive.com/services.html Shimano sold oval chain wheels, called "Biopace". from 1983 till 1993. The best that could be said for them was, as mentioned in the Wiki, "Some cyclists find the benefits of Biopace worthwhile". The square chain wheel you show is not sensible as two of the corners, where take the most effort, will have to be at portions of the pedal path where the pedal is at either the top or bottom of its path where you can't apply much, if any, pressure. Which is, of course, why Shimano Biopace used oval chain wheels. -- cheers, John B. |
