mechanically sound
Interesting plan, I recall a front drive design utilizing a worm drive shaft to the wheel, the bike looked like a normal bike. Your design would make a pretty cool parade bike IMO.

interesting.
two quick questions:
1) how does this design improve over the existing (chainring to rear wheel) drivetrain design?
2) the front wheel can turn substantially, especially at lower speeds. how do you deal with this?

HAHAHAHHAHA this is the most difficult to maintain and build bicycle idea ever, i am sure nobody has ever seen one built because this is the most ridiculous idea i have come across in the cycling world
HAHAHAHAHHHAAHAHAHAHHAAH.... whew let me catch my breath... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH you cant be seriously asking this question can you... HAHAHHA
HAHAHAHH... wait... you are serious arent you? even by the patent sketch stolen and submitted by the OP it is easy to tell it is steered with the rear wheel and the front wheel is fixed.
