All this is is a computer drawing, for all we know it could be nuclear powered or powered by the heat of a working colony of ants or termites that live inside the frame and are fed on a sucrose mixture once a week!

Concept sounds way too complicated for what it's replacing. The hardest part of design is making something that is even more basic and simple than it's predecessor.

COOL

with that direct drive hydraulics you're running into major problems with the drive because of the forces put into it by the pedals. Ideally you would have the pedals driving a shaft and the shaft driving the hydraulic motor iliminating the issues you're going to run into with seal problems.

I Really Like The Video From Your Hydraulic Bicycle

Wow! now this was a whole lot of nothing.....

@ct92404 oil would be a good start, but then what type of oil would you use?

and would it be good to use on a large scale, meaning would there be enough for everyone's bike?

also I'm thinking more about my piston idea. basically have one small piston attached to the pedals and run a fluid line to another on the wheel. and if that works, then with some alterations it could also be attached to the front wheel for more torque. Like rock climbing; so now we can use both wheels.

Well, I was thinking of some kind of small impeller. When you pedal, it turns an impeller which sends hydraulic fluid pressure to a small turbine at the back wheel. Also, you probably wouldn't use water, you'd use some kind of oil or something with more density. I don't know, it's just an idea. I'd like to experiment with this myself sometime too...I just don't have any money for that right now :(

@ct92404 I've done a simular experiment like this before and it diffinitively showed that air was a poor method to use, for the compression was not enough nor efficient enough to move my piston with a load of about 10 lbs of resistance. It was easier to move when it was just a chain.

Water had simular issues, but with water, using my method, it was not able to move the piston with out some kind of runoff, and refill.

And if bikes are going to run on water, it should just be steam.
