Attention Harleyman!

It probably could Brad, but I'd be afraid of the frontend coming unglued. If that happens then you'd be shouting... "LOOKOUT MABLE, SHE'S HEADED FOR THE RHUBARB!!!!!!

But it does look like a cool setup.
 
Hey guys,

Sorry, been away all day.

Center axle-less wheels have been around for years, but the industry is slow into going in that direction, mainly for lack of a reason in doing so. This one looks pretty cool. Some Japanese manufacturers have tried it.


Brakes; Basically you have a caliper set that bites into the wheel structure thats racing past the bearing carriers. I think his front forks have the calipers for that front wheel. If you see, there is ample area in the forks join point on that photo. Looks like his calipers are in that area. Probably no back braks from what I see. Probably just down shifts, then uses fronts at the last.


From what he has, it looks like he has a ton of mini bearing runners around the circumference of the 'inner stationary wheel' structure which carries the outer 'actual' wheel. Thats only from judging whats in that photo.. Who knows.. Could be a fake Photoshop pic.

:eek:


EDIT: You could almost make luggage storage pods for the insides of those wheels, eh? Especially that wide rear wheel....
