Anyone have electric friction drive parts no longer wanted? I have a project that needs friction drive and a throttle. Thanks.

Thanks. There are so many neat looking discontinued friction drives out there, I keep thinking I will find one.

I do have an early version. I'll go parts diving and see if I can find it...
But I can't imagine a better setup than the Kepler design. I've had my hands on two of his builds. Fantastic stuff and support too!!!

They do look nice. Apparently no longer being made. Or am I wrong when I read 'support too'? , which can be paramount. I can't find current info on the device.

Not to be rude, but if finding info on Kepler is proving too difficult, you might be taking on a project that is too complicated.

Full suspension mountain bike Friction Drive

After great results with friction drives on hard tail bikes, I was looking for a new challenge. Using the experiences from my other friction drive designs, I decided I would try and build an under bottom bracket friction drive for a serious large suspension travel mountain bike. Design...

No you can be frank . I can handle it. In this case I did not find much the first time due to I am not sure, seemed the timeline was quite old.
I am now registered and can see current responses. Thanks for the nudge. I will get to noodling about over there.
