spokeless bike

A collection of mechanical engineers from yale university teamed up to create this unique spokeless
bicycle design. the design features a custom frame which holds the wheel in place while also driving
it forward. the prototype only features a spokeless back wheel due to budget and time constraints.
while a spokeless bike won’t make biking easier, it does make for a unique bike. one of the designers
believes the space gained through a spokeless design could be used to house an electric motor or even
a gyro balanced storage basket.
