Default Re: 3 speed ??

Thats what I thought thanks for the response.

I thought I had read that the gears would effect the turning of the wheel in relation to the sprocket hooked to the pedal area. It wouldn't effect the free wheeling at all I see. Well that solves part of the problem with building a 3 speed conversion If I leave it in 1st it will be the best for starting and won't effect the engine's performance.

Still not sure I want to use one, but it is intriguing.
