Thank you oplholik !!! Though never common, the shaft-drive technology has been around almost as long as bicycles have been around. The earliest picture I've seen of a shaft-drive bike was from around 1900.
I love it because no concerns about messy greasy chains or persnickety considerations for gear and chain alignments or "doing the math" to get from a high gear to low gear or low to high quickly and smoothly. Much like the synchronized transmission of a manual automobile, you can shift the gear of a shaft-drive bicycle at any speed and at any time ... even sitting still.
Doesn't mean I don't also love my Schwinn Classic Supreme. In fact, the Schwinn is the more comfortable, while not as smoothly operating. I prefer the Schwinn's lines, frame proportions, lower ground clearance and ergonomics to some degree. But at the end of the day, I generally hop on the shaft-drive first and would keep it over the Schwinn just for practicality and efficiency.

, and they're all perfect except for one. That one is a Ti, with a P3 cap. The slanted tops are as tough as anything I own.
I filled it up using my usual add a few drops till I see the donut of juice well up, and drew it out with a syringe, this Kabuki has 5 full mls of juice and seems to vape exactly the same as the regular glass. At least to my non expert experience... I always lay my ProVari's down, and when out and about they are either in the cupholder with dense foam seperators or in my belt holster, so I don't fret about breakage, but I am impressed at the greatly increased volume capacity that the fat boy offers and at about three bucks a pop, I'm going to be getting a few more of them.
