So, I was checking out cargo bikes because of reasons, and I came across something that i found very interesting.
Not talking about the motor. No, not at all.
Look at the crank.
It's a jackshaft that goes through the bracket.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that it's freewheel from the pedal crank, because that would be incredibly stupid if it weren't. Also because their website seems to neither to confirm nor deny this.
SO!
Other than the fact that you need to get your clutch casing to magically point more or less straight down and without actually rotating the engine that much, what are your thoughts on using this sort of jackshaft with a little cheap 66cc?
Compare and contrast with the SBP shift kit, and comment on other implications too! Gogogo!
