Re: pic: Experimental VP drive gearbox

Can you explain what benefits you were looking to get with this design over a standard single speed gearbox? I'm not sure how this would save weight (pretty sure this would weigh more than any custom single speed gearbox) and it doesn't seem like it cuts down on custom parts much. Just wondering if there was some other objective driving this design, or if you were just doing it for exercise to see how utilizing a VP for a drive train gearbox would work.
