Just bought a pocket bike cvt from a buddy who had it just lying around for years for $25 , appears in full working order.
It's the CVT-B as referenced in this thread: https://motoredbikes.com/threads/the-cvt-faq.19772/.
It reverses rotation so I'll have to figure out how to get the power to the wheel. I'm think about doing an overall reduction of 28:1 to 12.8:1 for good acceleration and top speed. Would give me a 42 mph top speed if I keep it under 7k rpm (I'd have to put the governed flywheel and magneto back on) or 54 mph if it can hang to 9k rpm . It'll do it's variator thingy between 14-33 mph.
Hope it works right .
