Default What about a redux drive
That PH is at 4500 and no mention of a reduction unit. Looks like we need more info on this.

Impressively light! Ball/ needle bearings on the crank and connecting rods? Thought that went out in the '50s with some Porsche 4 cylinder engines. Me thinks this will be a very expensive engine. Looks nice, time will tell how reliable it is and what overhaul costs will be like.

Zlin will start selling the engine on their Savage Cub-S.

Ross, what do you think about the "composite" (several pieces press fit together) crank shaft?
