| Alleweder (Alligt A5) |
| Alleweder (Flevobike) | chainwheel (various sizes) | none | various cassettes | people have installed Sram Dual Drives or Rohloff hubs | poor - chain exposed around chainwheel - possible to add a shield. |

| Leitra (with mid-drive) | single chainwheel. (At least one has been seen with a second, smaller chainwheel, apparently with the "Flintstone" derailleur.) | mid-drive | Sachs 3x7 | Rohloff | Marco on the German Velomobil-Forum switched from the 3x7 Dual Drive to the Rohloff to allow for full enclosure of the drivetrain. |
| Leitra (without mid-drive) | single chainwheel. | none - this appears to be an option with the Leitra Sport. Some riders feel that a mid-drive increases the chances of chain derailment. It may (according to one writer) also be difficult to obtain cogs with long, un-profiled teeth any more. | Sachs 3x7 | Rohloff | According to Mikus, (a Leitra dealer): "In the new Leitra-Sport without a mid-drive, the drivetrain also has an enclosed run and for part of the way is also inside a Teflon tube, and at the Rohloff chainring, there is a cover. The dogleg is in front by the bottom bracket rather than in the rear below the frame." |
