Would This Work As A Freewheel?

Of course the bearings are strong,they are small and made of stainless steel,if someone could make the hubshell from the same material,it might work,but it would weight 2pounds or even more.Stealth hubs aren´t weak or light by any means(500g),yet they won´t last when used for trials.Based on this,I would say this isn´t way to go.

It's just engineering... If they can make the same type of clutch bearings work in heavy duty drills for however many thousands of uses, then someone can make it work on a bike. Same way that frames and components as light as those we have now wouldn't have been deemed 'possible' for trials 10 years ago.
