@usagearhead ERW will not go flat and we have replaced the steel with space age composits. Burst strength for the "hoop" is 50,000 psi. the membrane is 4,800 psi.. Contrast with pneumatic tires 120 psi.burst strength.

@imingzee We are Energy Return Wheel not Energy Creation Wheel. We simlpy return more than pneumatic tires. ERW requires less power because it is levitated and levering from the top inner diameter of the hoop. An 100% elongated rubber band will "stretch" recover and return more energy than a 30% ...

@alanleewaddell How cool would that be. So much Ford innovation as early as 1931. Simple is better in such a complex world. Thanks for the suggestion of retro, our new bicycle protos are close to what you would need!

@BMXSBOARD We can hardly wait ourselves. Almost finished with "airless" bicycle and will next bring the "learned" weight savings to auto.

@bobwatters Early protos were complicated because we built them ourselves. Lots of bolts replaced lots of dollars. Newest protos have no bolts and are vacuum charged.

@christopherwoods We are working hard to provide a fully developed product. It may be a decade before ERW will be allowed but we are very confident that the efficiency gains are too great to be denied for long.

@MsCareerist Check out the PNU "real time tire deformation vid" to see how a pnumatic tire can behave. We are spinning a composite hoop for smoother power transfer, so yes.

@Frutoses We did a crazy thing to hold the early prototype membranes to the steel hoops. Each hoop had 64 aluminum rivets... the heads "just" contacting the 48" steel rollers causing the rollers to "ring". We had been advised by the USDOT that if we dammaged their rollers we would have to pay fo...

@nroles87 ERW is working hard to "be". We have a light weight Kevlar jacket, carbon fiber composite hoop sprung from the wheel hub. On some protos we have the hoop suspended/sprung by pre charged "equal and opposite" drawn membranes. Applying a vacuum boost we have a suction cup force as well. E...

@VICTORdoomm Michelin recd. their patent on the "radial" tire in 1948. It was introduced in the USA in 1970. We hope our wait will not be so long. We comment because we work "every" day and are willing to share as much as we can without giving away the farm.
