Puch Maxi N mit Druckluft

hab da was im internet gefunden, dass ich euch zeugen möchte.
Keine revolution, aber zumindest mal was anderes.
Übersetzung Googeln könnt ihr selber, sofern nötig und es euch interessiert.
NEIN es ist kein NOS und KEIN Lachgas 
This Puch moped only has a range of about 7 miles and with a top speed of only 18 mph, it isn't going to break any land speed records, but there is definitely something special about it: it runs on air. Jim Stansfield, an aeronautics graduate outfitted his Puch with a pair of carbon-fiber air cylinders, two rotary air engines and the rest, as they say, is history.
The air powered Puch is a very interesting concept and while the seven-mile range might not sound like much, it is plenty for getting around city centers. Add to that the convenience that it takes only a couple of seconds to refill the air from a larger cylinder and you have something that could just work.
The only drawback to this system as I see it is that it is running on clean air; of the sort that is generally found in diving cylinders. If you have your own bottles, that is going to cost you $5 or $6 per big bottle and could push the running cost up a little over an electric bike. On the other hand, there is no need to run the system on dive-grade air. If you are not going to use the cylinders for breathing then there is no reason why you couldn't fill it yourself with standard compressor air.
