Got Shaft?

General
Yeah yeah I know what you where thinking no need to explain.
There are tons of furries out there that are, lets face it.... Nerdos, And they have to have the coolest setup for there computer. Unfortunatly no one has come up with a way for them to burn off all that aquired flubbage in front of the computer.
For some of us furries exercize is a thing of gold and a must to keep our bodies fit and heathy. Some of us run other walk. and perhaps some of us swim all year round. There is a group of furries out there that do bicycle.
I myself love to ride my bicycle. However like most nerdos and geeks I procrastinate. I hate having to bare the thought of cleaning and maintaning something as simple as a bicycle. However i always find myself tinkering around with other things on it. Right now I have a full lighting system on my bike. But when i look down i see a poorly maintained chain and other exposed mechanical goodies. Time to bring out the wire brush and such.
Im about to say good bye chain and hello Mr, Shaft drive. I have riden one of these mechanical wonders and ive got to tell you..... they are absolutly..... *drools* smoother then the best lubricant known to human kind. What i love about this new system is the sealed drive shaft crank and hub. The hub itself uses planetary gears and sun gears to switch gear ratios round even at a complete stop. I have had it with my chain falling off of the sprocket on my other bike now im ready to try this new system out. This bicycle seems to be a bit pricey but im telling you its worth it. and it will go well with the newer electric system i plan on putting into it later on.
for those of you who do not cycle you should give it a whirl. I have been commuting on a bicycle for 9 years now from distances from 1/2 a KM to 40 KM and im not sick of it yet. When i get these new goodies ill increase my efficientcy more then 94 percent with little maint. and a more consistant rate. Im telling you these new shimaro hubs are great. They even have ones that will convert that old single speed coaster brake into a nifty little 3 speed without all the expencive sprokects and brakes. They even have a coaster brake built into the hub itself.
I would not waste my time telling you about it. for now im going to give you a few links to look at. Please tell me what you think.
Do you think i should spend money on this. if its going to save me gas and energy?
