The Official Hubless Wheel hater thread.

And a materials course and they also need to start at Victor Papanek’s “Design for the Real World.” I ride a bike that was assembled in December of 1980. It’s an inch or so too tall for me to get on it comfortably. And the tires are too fat for efficient rolling friction. And it’s scratched. It’s heavy. And it ain’t pretty.

But compared to what these hubless beauties would do for a ride… it’s perfect.
