Re: The Future Of Tyres

That just looks plain wierd!!! By the looks of it as soon as you leaned the spoke thingies would just give way. Still I guess it will be many years before we see it. I guess first stop would be MOTO GP bikes. Thats where most new bike innovations go first and filter down...
