great subject on tinkering.
I am curious to understand how the nivex achieves to maintain constant 
chain tension.

I have ridden on bike equipped with the cyclo and the smooth action of the 
lever is impressive since there is no spring on your way!

I have a NOS suntour S1 that I purchased in order to try something new but 
have't had the time to start this project and winter is soon over;)
