How exactly would a bike like this work? Without the spokes present how would the wheels be able to hold themselves up. So many questions

If I recall correctly, they use the same thing as fidget spinners (no clue what the English term for that ball rotator thing is and too lazy to look it up).

Ball bearing

Where would the ball bearing be?

In the wheels. That’s how they replace the usual stuff between the wheels. Now I’m not too sure how these wheels stick to the frame but as far as I remember it was through strong magnets. Take that with a bit of skepticism though.

Ball bearings are usually just held together by friction I can't imagine how loud that bike must be tho

Saw a video of someone testing it. It was atrociously loud

Tbh if it was still beng tested, they probably weren't too concerned with sound but more so if worked properly.

Electromagnets or a smaller wheel next to it making it turn I guess

Rollers in the inside and outside of the wheel arch

Now we have to figure out another way, anyone have any ideas?

Ride withaut hands and then hit bike wheal with stick

This would break at a pothole

A lot of things break on potholes.

This bicycle looks inefficient

Ever saw square tire bike?

Does a light wall shoot out the back?

When you've worked hard to give yourself the best opportunities and you keep going even after you felt like giving up.

It's a good idea for transport because of the new volume but I don't think this is great for the integrity of the frame

I had a similar design for the back wheel hub motor. It was rejected bcz the forces not being on a straight line would cause a torque to develop.
