I thought about such a drive before... I'm curious as to how you adressed a few issues...


Are the balls air-filled or solid rubber? If they are air-filled, how thick is the skin?

I'd imagine the drivetrain is optimized with speed in mind rather than torque. How much torque can you exert on the surface of the ball before it slips?
