OK well it definitely needs more exposed tread. Also, this is a wild guess but I’m guessing maybe the front and top of the frame is one piece and the engine and rear wheel are a separate piece. Basically, I am thinking that the way this bike would turn is that the entire top of the frame would rotate independent from the engine. Kind of radical in my opinion but we will never know until we ride one.

What the…
This bike could only be used as a piece of furniture as it soes not have movable wheels. The inside of the wheels might spin but that doesn’t help because there is 100% no contact with the road surface unless there is a tiny slit at the bottom of the wheel to give a couple of square cm of road contact. Also there seems to be no way of turning it as the front structure is totally secured to the body work. This is a bike that needs some serious thought.
p.s. I like the instrument panel

Id ride this, type of bike Kirk should have rode in Star Trek movie (2009).
Id add Buddy Seat & side bags.
Ergonomic controls in front.
Very Cool.
Love to Rent & Ride.

It could certainly use some more tread exposed- it may create a minute more drag, but aren’t those useless air-chopping fins in the hubs doing that already?

excuse me, where the designer hide the front up-side down fork?
if the final-design looks like this, seems i couldn’t do stoppie or wheelie with this machine, huh? too bad.. too very bad.. again, how’s the rider to turn the bike left or right? extreme innovation were always so much good, but.. means nothing if not rational & functional..

very interesting design but the only problem is I don’t see how its exposed to move at all.
