This is a remix I've made and tested on a Prusa i2. I've done lots of reworks from the original source (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:887386).
Improvements:
-MK7 drive gear support!
-It is now adapted for Prusa i2 x-carriage
-Remodelled lever. Now uses the standard 623 bearings!
-Pressure system is new making it similar to other Prusa i2
-Hotend now fits perfectly and you're able to install a fan in the hotend without tocuhing x-carriage
-Screw holes have been adjusted and added to fit motor
I use the bowden thing and then a 3mm thick teflon tube to guide filament from the bearing and motor all the way to the extruder. This is recommended for flexible filaments.
Fan I used: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:94086
Printing speeds are higher than 70mm/s with a 0.4mm nozzle using PLA!
Flexible filaments are compatible. Printing speeds higher than 40mm/s!
