NuVinci Bicycle
Fallbrook Technologies is starting to manufacture a bicycle with a "infinite" gears. It is called NuVinci transmission. This transmission works by having ball bearings around a hub that are kept in by a input disc (attached to the chain from the peddles) and a output disc (attached to the rear wheel). The pull handles on the front cause the whole transmission to tilt therefore increasing to a different gear deppending on the amount of tilt. To learn more about the bike click on THIS!

do you know if they are going to sell it soon?
Dom --
If you scroll down on www.fallbrooktech.com, you'll see a section entitled AVAILABILITY. It sounds like SOME of their products are available (an upgrade kit, for instance), but they're not yet producing entire bikes with the new transmission system.
I think that Fallbrook technologies didn't build the bike,
they just built the transmission.
Ellsworth bikes built the bike.
