    Default Reevo hubless electric bicycle.

    Still seems to be in funding stage at Indiegogo, but they do seem to have prototypes going around.

    No idea of durability though. Because of electric: No spokes, sort of like a cheaper version of spherical tires?

    I'd worry about iron filings collecting somewhere it shouldn't. Mind you, they seem to not have a problem with scooters collecting any magnetic debris off the road, so I guess its been addressed.

    If the drive mechanism is on the inside of the ring, then it shouldn't be as big an issue with dirt, but still could be an issue.

    Could be the template for future motorcycles, just put an 8hp motor in it and call it a day.

    I guess it's for people that don't like rimming.
