Students at Yale University have developed a spokeless bicycle wheel. As you can see from the photo, only the rear wheel is spokeless. This was done for cost reasons as the prototype was expensive to ...

Usually, when you put nine university seniors together from a mechanical engineering class in a room for a whole semester with no strict agenda, the last thing you expect to get is a useful product.

NEW HAVEN -- A bicycle with no spokes on its rear wheel may not be the most efficient mode of transportation. It's a little heavy and has only one gear. And spokes, besides connecting the rim to the ...

In a new spin on the bicycle, a Yale mechanical engineering class has created a bike whose spokeless wheels appear to rotate around thin air. The bicycle, which its inventors believe to be the first ...

A team of students at Yale decided to build a spokeless bike for their mechanical design class. One semester later, they had the machine you see here. The students concentrated on the rear wheel, for ...

Admittedly, only the back wheel is spokeless, but there are reasons for that. The students that posted this up were in a mechanical engineering class at Yale, and wanted to prove that you could build ...

Leave it to a bunch of engineering students at Yale to design a crazy spokeless bike. It’s not the first spokeless bike we’ve seen, but it looks a lot more like a ...

The Cyclotron Bike is a smart bicycle that has airless and spokeless wheels. Its integrated design allows for better aerodynamics, making it really fast to ride.Oct ...

Here's something that'll make you think twice before your next bike purchase -- the geniuses (genii?) at Yale University have built a pretty rad spokeless bicycle, which was somehow inspired by the ...

A wave of spokeless bike designs (more renderings than reality) prompts one question: why? The application deadline for Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies Awards is Friday, October 3, at 11:59 p ...

'Cyclotron' is an ambitious bicycle design, made out of super light carbon fiber and airless, spokeless wheels. The wheels also double up as utility slots. The bike changes gears electronically and ...

We’ve seen a lot of unfeasible projects on crowd-funding websites that failed to go into production or were fake from the beginning - like that underwater respirator made out of two bike grips and a ...
