Personally I have never seen hydraulic brakes on a bike Reintroduction of the flex system here would be fantastic. I like the looks of the Lego version much more than the ideas submission. Wheels with tyres are the obvious improvement, and the frame feels way too bulky.- 5,667 replies

I'd agree that it looks bad, wheels seem undersized. -

Exactly this. Also ,the 64t gear will be a very useful addition for making large gear ratios, especially if it can be matched with 8t at some reasonable spacing. Even with 16t (which meshes with it at a regular spacing), a chain of 1:4 ratios (16:64) may have lower friction than multiple 1:5 (8:40).- 5,667 replies

Apparently the bike has a freewheel mechanism, e.g. one way ratchet inside 24t gear. So many new, useful parts!- 5,667 replies

My mechanical clocks
Davidz90 replied to Davidz90's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This one is not mine, but built by Roger Barthares. He agreed for me to share it. Most likely a new world record of efficiency, at 17.3 microwatts. My record from 4 years ago was technically 14.6 microwatts, but it was very unreliable and had no hands at all. -

I can count 16 teeth on one quarter of the wheel. Also, it seems slightly larger than 60 tooth turntable. 64 is definitely more desirable in terms of adding new gear ratios.- 5,667 replies

Well, I'll certainly have many uses for this in clocks. If I counted properly, it has 64 teeth, making easy 1:8 and 1:4 gear ratios possible. Please make 32t gear next XD- 5,667 replies

Yes, this! My dream come true would be Bugatti type 35 or some other 20's-30's race car in the 1:8 supercar scale.- 5,667 replies

I have recycled the best elements of the clock tower into something more manageable in terms of size: The form resembles turret clocks commonly found inside the clock towers. The mechanism will rest at the top. Unlike the previous design, here I have plenty of space to add many extra functions such as chimes.
