    Spokeless wheels like that are almost always a hint that the vehicle is a novelty product and that the manufacturer cares more about adding gimmicks (and by that many expensive and proprietary parts) instead of making a reliable and high quality ride. I don know about this one ofc, so I wont judge it but generally when I see something like this I think. “Why reinvent the wheel (literary in this case lol) when you can instead improve an existing concept that has proven itself as the optimal, state of the art solution for hundreds of years”? Oh and good luck finding a workshop that is equipped with the proprietary spare parts when you have technical problems while somewhere on the road.
