UDC announces a geared hub of thier own!
http://www.unicycle.com/whats-up/
This could be a game changer. Looks like it'll be based on the NuVinci, no date for release, but if they're announcing it, then maybe we could see something this year! |

Awesome!
Here's a pic. It's hard to see because it's made of transparent aluminum: |

I wish, but.... you didn't fool me either.
 ...Or am I fooling you about that?

Yeah, it'd be quite the thing, and likely doable, but someone would have to invest the time and money. I wonder if Schumpf would consider it, make it patentable by altering the direction of use.
Happy April 1st !! |
