My Next Wheel Set
 

:notamused:Well, if it can go over severe bumps, I know a few roads in Cincinnati that would let me get great use out of them.

I will order two sets

Hopefully this wasn't government subsidized research.

i feel like he just reversed the shape of the wheel and the road.
If im not mistaken for the olympics in beijing there was a bike with similar style wheels yet worked on a flat road

is this a solution to a problem that doesn't exist?

Yeah, that's kinda the point, such as it is...


No, that was something a little different:

the definition of a guy with too much time on his hands.

It's dem cold Minnesota winters dere. :)

experimental 'bikes only' road where the bikes with special wheels will be able to travel smoothly, but other vehicles (by that it implies car) with normal round wheels will hit endless speedbumps.

Hmm... that's a really, really good point. [/ridicule]

it didn't come out of my mouth, except I can't find the link to my source...

Yeah, like, oh... all of them. (Born/raised in Cincinnati, UC grad)

Ah, cool. I live right outside of Cheviot and there is not a road in there that isn't either constant patches and bumps or covered in sand and gravel. And that was my way to work. :(

Oh well, half the fun of biking is finding new places to ride. :D

Haha... Yeah, the west side is especially bad. I grew up in White Oak and had pretty similar experiences. Then going to school at UC was especially hazardous--in addition to the routine potholes, lots of cars coming out of blind allies and what not. My one bike vs. car collision was on Calhoun St. where I t-boned a car that pulled out not paying attention...
