... With energy stored at electrical equilibrium proportional to the square of speed, a bicycle with electric flywheel offers a riding strategy not available to unequipped bicycles. Descending hills or taking a long run at a coming hill provides enough energy storage to assist in a climb....
This system would be rather interesting if coupled with a street ride-able hard-shell streamliner, e.g. Rotator Coyote [1].
This could be arranged. The hub is available in 20, 24, and 26 inch rims. The caps fit in a rack bag. I am sticking with LIghtning for now, and hope to have a better model than their low-ball Thunderbolt by 2010.
In 2009, I will be demonstrating the electric flywheel at MIT, at the EGS Reunion.
What's the Cheddar ucrtain made of? Sharp or extra sharp? Is that a reference to some Englander situation?
