Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
the interest is not the gimbal but the rollers of the chain which are replaced by ball bearings.

Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
Without protection, their usefulness (not that they turn on their axis during contact with the toothed wheel), longevity and exceptional performance remain to be verified. To judge the effectiveness of a technology, aesthetics is not enough.Eric Dupont wrote:the interest is not the gimbal but the rollers of the chain which are replaced by ball bearings.
In 1898, we already knew how to manufacture an "Acatène" chainless bicycle. https://wiki.tontonvelo.com/index.php/H ... 98_environ

Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
there is no reason why the ball bearings do not hold if they are sealed and calculated for the load. What you have to see is the contact of the ball bearing transmission and not the universal joint itself where the load is transmitted by friction.

Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
why speak of cardan? there are not any !
there is a conical engenage in front of ... a bevel gear behind, but no gimbals!
everything is rigid!

Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
You're right, there is only need for a gimbal when there is a shock absorber (and again, it depends on the geometry of the suspension).chatelot16 wrote:there is a bevel gear in front ... a bevel gear behind, but no gimbals!

Re: Cardan bike without chain speed
the interest here on this bike is the exceptional transmission efficiency associated with a variable speed drive.
