I remember seeing a concept harley featured in a mag with this sort of thing years ago (but nothing like this chopper)

That's a chopper I'd ride.
I think someone explained it well in response to the video - there are two very thin rims with each wheel, one inside the other and they are seperated by bearings or bush. The inside rim is like a mega-large axle that's hollow and that's the only rim you can see from the outside. That's also the rim that's connected to the rest of the bike. No spokey-dokeys whatsoever.

Imagine being able to magically take the axle on your bike and enlarging it's diameter out to the point where it's the same diameter as the rim edge around your tyre.

If I had the money, and being a skateboarder from way back, I'd be getting one of these to get to work on.

Thats fucking rad, i want one! I just bought a new real deck, its an oldschool ramp deck, extra thick, extra long and extra wide for heavy cunts! Cant wait to put my indys on and go run over kids at the skatepark.

^^^^ lol! I really want one too. What a great way to get around the grounds at the next Fools Run. ;):D

Also gotta get me another unicycle - great seeing people try to ride, especially when pissed.

You would have to replace rear tyre's too offen with that set up, but i still think its cool
