CHAINLESS BICYCLE-FABRICATION, ASSEMBLING AND PERFORMANCE DEMONSTRATION
                    The name itself suggests that a bicycle runs without chain, we might have never seen the chainless bicycles in our daily life. Here instead of chain, we are using gears and shaft to transmit power from pedal to the rear wheel. For the manufacturing of gears we opted EN8 material, because it is unalloyed medium carbon steel which has high strength levels compared to normal bright mild steel, due to thermo mechanical rolling. EN8 is suitable for all round engineering purposes that may require a steel of greater strength.
ACCESORISES:
1.     Bike computer
2.     Solar LED light
3.     Armature connected to LED
Bike computer is a wireless device which shows the top speed, current speed, trip distance, trip time etc. Solar LED light is placed below the seat as danger light, where it could be visible even at the night .We all know the principle of dynamo, but here we connected the armature to LED lights to get better brightness. 
When compared to conventional bicycle this chainless bicycle is easy to drive on normal roads or on hilly regions .These gears are setup in the ratio of 1:2.64 ,where normal conventional bicycle will have it’s ratio as 1:2.
