Whiplash, loving the build so far, but that image spinningmagnets posted got me thinking about a possible problem you may have.
With my build, getting the gears from the gearbox to the cranks aligned was tedious and could vary between bikes, so a setup very similar to the image but designed to move the crank/gear assembly left or right could be needed. I had to space the gears off the freewheel a specific distance to fit the frame, but a bolt in then adjust solution would be much easier for people who have not just designed a bb drive system.
This would probably be cheaper to have adjustable on the gearbox shaft itself, but it is an issue to keep in mind, as I know my box won't bolt onto different frame geometries perfectly, as the gears won't align properly and risk jumping.
Anyway, cant wait to see what you end up with, see how reliable and adaptable it is. It is looking good so far.
