Have we done this yet?
I saw it in Velo Vert magazine yesterday, what do people think?
They've moved the freewheel from the hub to the crankset so the chain is always moving meaning you can change gear even if you're not pedalling...

I like the idea of moving the (100g) weight of a freehub to the middle of the bike as opposed to the hub. However, having the chain in constant motion would result in some spectacular damage scenarios - I've bent a rear mech into my spokes within the last twelve months, a chain in constant motion would've completely killed my rear wheel and damaged my chainstays.
If it's all the same, I'd rather carry the 100g in my rear hub instead.
