Living by the sea wreaks havoc on all metal objects. The salt
air & sandy soil wastes no time returning steel to rust. These
frustrating facts have lead me to design a CHAINLESS BIKE~!
One that uses either a rust resistant cable that is concealed
within an aluminum frame, with an oil fill hole, or a rubber-
plastic coated cable.
A gear inside an enclosed housing cranks and winds up
the mechanism right @ the rear wheel on the end of
the fork. The pedals do not go around & around, but
are spring actuated up & down...
So there's a ratchet in the wheel so it only pulls in one direction? This is a good idea! Hey! There's a KW on the last drawing
ReplyDeleteWow...your brain really does drift in ALL directions.
ReplyDeleteThis really does look like a great idea!
KW: yeah, the KW stood for something... Kwik-Winch ? Something that pertained to the concept that would make a good patent-trademark~!
ReplyDeleteJeff: Your comment made me laugh because it reminded me of this cheezy Kung-Fu movie from the 80's in which the Evil Master can move his maniacal brain into any part of his body. The Good Guy beat him by STOMPING on his foot~ which caused the Bad Guy to grab his heart and keel over~!
Hey~! You're right~! I am drifting~!
