I think it uses a cable to swing the motor unit to the wheel. You can see the cable and the video shows a scene where it seems there is a lever on the handlebar to engage the motor with the wheel.Miles said:It looks like it engages by means of an actuator?Adried said:I found a "new" friction drive, it seems to be a Kepler copy.

Much respect to that statement! I see so many intellectual property battles over similar ideas like this and you could have very easily freaked out and cried 'thief'.Kepler said:I wish them well with their venture and am pleased to see the design out there. Power of Endless Sphere does it again. 8)

Open-source to save the world! Your additude == real intellectual honesty!
That's an example of the true spirit of open source if I've ever seen one. Kudos to Kepler.Kepler said:As long as I am not locked out from my own idea by someone trying to claim rights to it, I am happy.
