Lego Technic Chain-based CVT

This is not the first time that a Lego CVT  appears on this blog, but this one uses a different mechanism than all the previous appearances of this kind of gearbox, it uses a chain, like Bikes do, this solves some problems of the other CVT's like friction ans slippage.

    I also made one of these.
    You can see the mechanism at 1:11. It's a little bit different.
