Posted July 6, 20168 yr Hi there! I've been using this system for a while in some of my cars but i never thought about how good it would be on a bike. So here's my test before i start messing with an actual bike. It works pretty well, i had to cheat a little bit cutting a 3L into 3 bits of half stud to strenghten the rubber parts in the clutch. It will basically allow the bike run free from the motor, wich means that it won't fall down as soon as you release the power button. HOPEFULLY :D hope you'll like it!

July 6, 20168 yr So if I understand right, each rubber connector is attached to the bike wheel on one side and the other (reinforced) half can deform outwards to be "caught" by the gear-driven wheel? How much friction is there between the rubber and the driven wheel when it's in free spin?
July 6, 20168 yr Author yeah you got it right, there's no friction if you dont mount it too tight... just leave about 1mm between the rim and the wheel so the rubber parts don't touch the rim.
July 6, 20168 yr Really cool concept, I will definitely be using it in my bikes. And for some inspiration on how to make working bikes, I would definitely check out Slewentogzz's bikes. And my bike too (shameless plug )
July 6, 20168 yr Author I actually wanted to text him the link to my video, im already working on a prototype but i need an s-brick to make it work properly
July 29, 20168 yr Any chance you have the part numbers for the pieces in the clutch assembly. I love this idea
July 29, 20168 yr Any chance you have the part numbers for the pieces in the clutch assembly. Is it the 60208? Edited July 29, 20168 yr by KamalMYafi
