Maybe if you go this far may as well use a Lazer rear gearbox?
I imagine it could be adapted to the mid chassis or look into a open gearbox for the Mid similar to what James did for the ZX-R
How can I find you on Facebook
Hi Dan, been a long time. There are just too many things to change if I were to go for a lazer gearbox, the motor plate..chassis, it wouldn't be an Optima Mid anymore, the goal is to convert the Mid with minimal cost and max reusability of existing parts. And open type plate gearbox will again incur more costs. I basically have a machining problem and the accuracy of my 3D printer is deplorable to make the pulleys, I will be sending out STL files to a 3D print specialist and lets see if he can print the pulleys accurately.Look for my name RamaChandran on facebook, you will see a pic of me with glasses and a black T shirt lying down, with my wife with sunglasses taking the pic.
Just see the location to confirm, I am pretty sure you'll get me !
