Cool old Schwinn, have fun with that one!
They are already out there. A few years ago, one of the inventors was working with Cannondale, and the CVT was inside the rear hub. I'm not sure how those Landriders work, either.
Bill, that looks like one of those "compact" triples often found on triple RSX setups, then with the outer ring added. I like it. That is a lot of shifting, but you can climb anything, run fast, and pretty much everything in between.
