Babelfish renders it as
"The primary transmission by belt presents a much better output than a 
chain. It is thus possible to replace the usual idler roller by an 
intermediate belt and to lower the centre of gravity of the unit."

Looks that way.
"The handlebar makes it possible to control all at the same time, but 
independently, the steering of the wheels and the angle of inclination, 
just as the passage speeds and braking. You control thus simultaneously 
the whole of the parameters of piloting."
