CLASSIC TRADITIONAL CABLE DRIVE #5 BIG ELI WHEEL

This Wheel has the same dimensions and passenger capacity as the Signature Series Electric Rim Drive #5 BIG ELI Wheel shown below.  This style Wheel is the one Mom and Dad and Grandma and Grandpa grew up riding at parks and county fairs throughout North America. 

This shows the traditional cable-drive and Star Lighting Package which was the original design in 1912.  It is a beautiful Wheel and many are still operating.  Eli Bridge Company still repairs, refurbishes and sells parts for these Wheels.

These Wheels take a much more trained, expert operator to properly run.  Because of the cable-drive, this Wheel must be very carefully balanced and operated with a seasoned touch.  Since the availablility of experienced operators is so limited, Eli Bridge Company no longer manufactures the cable drive models. 

NOW LOOK AT THE NEW ELI WHEEL BELOW!

The Signature Series Electric Rim-Drive Wheel is far superior in terms of decreased operator training time, ease of operation (much less of a balancing challenge), a smoother, quieter ride (very indoor/mall-friendly), built-in interlocking safety features and far more lights and flash. 

It makes more money but still has the nostalia of Americana at its best!
