Belt drive

Post by Rayray »

Some guys I know are already building a vehicle for KSR.
It looks like a mini Indy car now.
There’s lawnmower transmission in back for rear wheel drive. They
will have 2 bike frames driving transmission with belt
drives. That’s pretty ingenious, since belt drive can easily change
power direction 90 deg.
My question to you:
Have you seen a belt used for transmitting power from pedals to a transmission. How robust would that be for KSR?

Thanks,
