I currently ride a 33cc Huasheng friction drive which has been treating me great. I ran a King's off brand 66cc for a while until I got sick of the chain drive, and built the friction drive.
The friction drive is good for riding to work, it doesn't need too much maintenance and is extremely simple. The problem is, I miss the speed and power of my old HT.
I've been having the idea of buying a new Grubee and running it through a shift kit for more low end torque and top end speed. I have a Schwinn Link frame which would be perfect for the kit. It would be a nice summer project.
Is the shift kit as fun as it seems? Any issues I should know about before I think about buying one?
