Wheel review meets Little Big Planet

[mattmassacer]

the torque will just twist the hell outta tht shit, and it would have horrible brake response

Wheres your ideas parasites? Until you dsign better save your useless judgement

[AryanKnight]

While this so-called 'SuperTweel' appears to have the advantage of lighter-weight and reduced aerodynamic-drag at the upper-half of the tire, as compared to the michelinTweel. Unfortunately, unless the inventor has timely filed a Patent-application, the 1-year statute of publicly revealing one's invention would pose a problem. U.S.Pat.Office has been hyjacked by criminal jewZionist Rockefeller-mafia, and is actively trying to cheat inventors of their rights by changing to- "1st to file"..!!!

woof woof woof

i saw this design 10-15 years ago..if it was any good we would all have them by now !!!

[tennesseejed1969]

How is your tweel different from Michelins?

[purpleGoAhead]

i think it would be great for (very) slow off-road driving, but never for sporty road-drivers... the vehicle would certanly feel sluggish (probably the same like pneumatic tyres at 10PSI)

Terrible design

[octoron85]

What about flood, sand, snow, off road performance?

[41ACE]

@octoron85 sink for sure lol

[Darwinpasta]

The problem with this design is the absence of spokes diagonally mounted between the wheel and the hub, meaning that under a severe application of torque, the hub would try to rotate inside of the wheel, stretching the rubber bands, er, spokes. The tweel has spokes arranged in such a way as to prevent this, like the spokes in a bike wheel.

A Tweel design with tensioned spokes like yours would beat either on its own.

I hope you succeed, Low Rider Style.

how is it getting better mileage? how long does it last with out giving away. Do they go flat once they lose their dexterity.

NON directional is good/

[mastior]

won't be seeing them on any tracks, Imagine Burn Outs? They'd last one revolution.

Flapping down the road on the spokes in no time.

[GTFORZA]

lol the thickness of a tweel tread is about the same as the thickness of a tread pattern from the steel belt to road contact surface. so itd be about the same.

[lasertrefakiefoo]

You're right man , Just pull the hand brake not even a burn out..

[hairy0pothead]

peterantonbecker you are very clever, I want a car with super tweels on it.

[ESTEBEVERDE]

AWESOME!!

A home demo of why you think the tweel doesn't work isn't credible. If your ideas were so sound and usable you would be designing in a lab with a tire company, not posting poor quality videos on youtube.

[peterantonbecker]

In this regard Jane Jacob's insights as to where good technologies can originate and have originated might be helpful. I guess the concept that they have to come out of the big labs is more bureaucratic and elitist oriented than science based.
