yea i gota agree with bob, its a great system for a bike but not very heavy duty for any other aplication. a good example was that a few years back, before i had my licence i had made up a gooseneck trailer type setup for my bicycle, sorta like those little trailers people tow behind there bikes to tow there children in, but much heavier duty,it had a frame made of electrical conduit that was well reinforced yet still realatively light weight. it hitched up to the bike frame under the seat area and had a ball joint, sorta like a little 3pt link ball end. well being that i was only 14 or 15 at the time most everything i brought home on my own from anywheres local came home on this trailer. hauled a 250 cc honda motorcycle on it,a few lawn tractors,a rototiller and all sorts of assorted other things from the bulk trash collections on the roadside every spring and fall. not a very safe setup looking back on it since there were no trailer brakes, and we live in very hilly area, i overshot our driveway more than once coming home. but the point to my story is that i tore up many bicycle sprockets and chains while trying to downshift while going uphill, derailer system is definatly NOT a powershift tranny cause if ya shift one under heavy load it will break parts for sure.
