Tech Help / Re: CVT sourcing
« on: November 21, 2014, 03:43:18 AM »
Firstly, thanks for all your replys!
I will look into some maxi scooter CVTs good idea
If anyone had any links for places selling, even links to new CVTs that aren't for a specific vehicle that would be great! (In the UK or can ship to UK would be even better
)
Built for racing with a university team and I'm trying to push them into CVTs rather than using direct drive as from a standing start it has the speed of a 125cc bike and all the torque is really at 60ish mph upto 100mph.
EDIT:
Do you not think that a 250cc CVT could do it?
I was wandering this earlier and wasn't sure if the CVTs rated power is for the part where the ratio is changing only or for that and the part where the CVT has reached it's max ratio?

Just curious, BillyJ, what sort of ride are you talking about? Something you cooked up yourself?
