It always amazes me the ways people try to "improve" bicycle design...
The chain drove the rear wheel. Two sets of bevel gears and a flexable shaft connected the rear hub to the front hub. My question is: "Why would anybody want such a thing?" I can't imagine anything that I think it would do better than a more typical mountain bike.

Back to the original post, I just noticed a "LandRider Autoshift Bike" ad on the right margin of my BF screen. Cool!
