Re: Winnovation Midwest Coast Drive

Looks pretty good so far. The transmission layout is rather clean. I'd be worried about the belts in the tubes though. It seems like if one were to wear or break at an inopportune time (say during Einstein finals), you'd have a heck of a time replacing it. And don't think it wouldn't happen. All it would take is one piece of sharp debris to find its way in there.

Also, I'd be very concerned about the strength of a three spoke wheel, at least with the spoke profile and material you've chosen.
