Just noticed this thread bumped from last year.

The gear ratio is changed by loosening the chain tension, pulling out
the jackshaft, changing the cogs, and also pulling the right crank and
changing the crank cog accordingly. The two sides of the driveline are
symmetrical. Same as on Purple Phaze. The process takes about 10-15
minutes, not really field-serviceable.




No, not really field serviceable. But in a short period of time it can
be set up for whatever ride you want. A wide range of gear ratios are
available. This makes it extremely versatile. You're not just stuck
with 1:1 or 1:1.5. How many gear ratios have you tried in your
jackshaft design? How many do you know to be possible?
