Hi Lukas,
Thank you for the links about the direct drive hub. I contacted Kervelo
some time ago, but they were selling the plant/design or something, I
couldn't get much meaningful info from them.
Please keep me posted if you find out more about these Korean guys or any
other direct drive hub.
I found one more manufacturer:
https://www.mc2bike.com/store/p11/MC%C2%B2_DRIVING_WHEELSET.html
They told me that they would make a production batch some time this year
and then I could buy a gear hub. It is just a 2-speed hub, but still better
than 1-speed :).
Will post all the details here.
Cheers, Tiha

Hi Tiha,
this is a great design. Thank you for sharing. I have been looking in to
such designs for a while and am quite interested in your preferred pivot
angle and riding experience.
One disadvantage is currently the lack of gears. However I found two
possible suppliers.
https://www.kervelo.com/ They offered a direct drive bike with 12 gears.
The hub cost around 1.000€ which is too much for me. It is based on
pinion gears.
http://bygen.co.kr/ Will be able to offer a hub with 6 gears. They told
me I could contact them in July 2020 for more details. If you are
interested I can keep you updated for more details once they are available.
Keep me posted.
Cheers,
Lukas

Hi All,
This is the new Python I am building. It will have a direct drive on the
front wheel like a penny farthing.
The interesting part for me is the adjustable pivot to find the best pivot
angle for this beast. Will see how it works out, hopefully soon.
Hope to give you ideas!
Cheers,
Tiha
