is it possible that flywheel kers systems could ever become a real thing?
we know they work why dont we use them?
maybe on a normal bike itd be clunky but i could definetly see a recumbent trike with a flywheel, its basically free energy especially if you live in a very hilly place or have to do alot of stopping and starting like in an urban environment
i did some experimenting in beamng with a flywheel powered vehicle and found it to be very effective even offroad
if we can just figure out how to make a good cvt or just use a regular gearbox and clutch i dont see why a flywheel kers system couldnt allow a medeocre cyclist to set world records in certain scenarios
whats the catch?
and what other future technoligies could change cycling?
