Treadmill Test
Unfortunately the battery was running low so I could not get the wheel to stay vertical. Also, the treadmill's belt still needs to be tightened to eliminate the various bumps and folds along it.

Finished!!!! (for now)
Here's the completed chassis with rider attached, all wires hooked up and gear cover visible
The rider in the leaning position, preparing to make a turn
Close-up of the gear cover installed
Due to the sudden torque delivered by the motor, the clutch ring kept on detaching from the main shaft (due to the glue's bond being overwhelmed), disengaging the transmission frequency. Therefore, the yellow spur gear is now simply glued to the drive shaft altogether.

A rare view of the right side of the vehicle, showing the motor cables' hookup to the ESC.
