That looks very cool even thoughit is so heavy! I think that in the next
5 years we are going to see some very interesting geared Unis apear.
Gearing a Uni is a great Physics and or Mechanic projest at the
university level.

I wonder how the red pneumatic or hydraulic line is incorporated in this
device. This would be a cool one to see.

Edit: Oh, it looks like a cable guide after all.

Like somebody here (Tom Blackwood?) said recently, "hooray for
contraptions"!

Probably utterly impractical, but that's not the point. If it works,
it's cool in itself (for that matter, if it doesn't work it's still
quite cool)

I assume the second lever is to take up chain tension rather than using
the normal spring-loaded derailleur mech (so it can drive in both
directions), so gear changing would presumably be pretty awkward, and
obviously it's ridiculously heavy, but what a machine

That is a wild looking contraption. I have to say, though, that if the
goal is to have multiple gears and a derailuerr type system, I think
Unibiker was onto the right idea with a bicycle conversion. I can't
see riding 40+ miles on something like that thing in the picture.
