Hello, Andrea! I’m from the Philippines & this is a WONDERFUL invention you made! I see a LOT of possible uses for this! But tell me: Can you engineer one that is hubless? That is, a foldable tire that has no spokes for bicycles? You see, I was thinking of combining your folding hubless, spokeless bicycle tires with Gianluca Sada’s collapsible bicycle for the ULTIMATE travel bicycle which you can take aboard ANY other transport, be it a bus, train, ship or plane! Once you get to your destination (or, as an alternative, should your motor vehicle, i.e. bus or car, break down), just simply take out & expand Gianluca Sada’s collapsible bicycle then unfold & attach your folding hubless, spokeless Revolve Wheel bicycle tires & VOILA! You can still keep on going without getting tired much! And if you’re getting tired of biking (or are just plain lazy!), you can simply attach Swytch’s eBike Conversion Kit to convert your Sada collapsible bicycle into an impromptu electric bicycle & keep on going until you reach your destination! In effect, these three systems, when taken all together, will form the ULTIMATE travel bicycle! Well? Interested?
