Ha ha, thats funny. (obviously powercranks are have one-way-clutches aka

as freewheels, so it would make any bike a single speed )



Almost as funny as asking should one use a 42x14, 45x15 or a 48x16 ?



I have seen deraillured bicycles with the freewheel in the BB. The

chainrings, chain, cogs would keep going as long as the bicycle was

going. The big thing was you could shift while coasting... obviously

on a recreational bicycle..





Now is there any reason why you couldn't stop and do a wheel flip..

might take a while though but might be faster than walking up the hill ?
