I'm glad that you enjoy it and are making good use, I'd love to have one purely as a conversation peice, do you have any pictures?

it's good to hear reviews from an actual owner rather than: a link to a retail site, a query on wether anyone has anything to say and the ensuing flippant comments from people who have about as much experience on the matter of the original poster.

with modern computer design bevel drives have gotten alot more efficient than the older ones, even though it'll never figure in with belt and chain drive, but there are good arguements to me made over exposed chain drives and their need to be clean and lubricated and so far there are few if any enclosed chain bikes available.

I've long preffered shaft drive motorcycles, I hope that it becomes more popular in cycling too.
