Continuously variable transmissions use belts sliding between cones instead of fixed gears
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
Instead of violently clunking between preset fixed gears, a continuously variable transmission uses a thick belt squeezed between two adjustable metal cones. By pushing the cones closer or further apart, the belt climbs up or down, providing an infinite amount of perfectly smooth gear ratios.
One discovery leads to another.
