    The aesthetics of a Hubless bike are admittedly growing on me - however does anyone have any input on how the extra Mass near the edge of the wheel affects handling?

    Where to start? You could have used Swoop's spare apostrophe in that "I've". Then again that might have caused him to have an aneurysm. (As opposed to an anuerysm?)

    Only mentioned these since we seem to be momentarily picky.

    Handling? Extra mass near the edge of the wheel is the least of the handling issues ...

    A bloke called Sbarro did a series of hubless bikes many years ago, might even have been the first, and I'm pretty sure one of them was hydraulic. More a design exercise at the time.

    Don't remember this. Caption time?

    It looks like someone took an Acid trip after watching TRON too many times, whilst playing with CAD software....
