We’ve seen a lot of unfeasible projects on crowd-funding websites that failed to go into production or were fake from the beginning - like that underwater respirator made out of two bike grips and a ...

Usually, when you put nine university seniors together from a mechanical engineering class in a room for a whole semester with no strict agenda, the last thing you expect to get is a useful product.

NEW HAVEN -- A bicycle with no spokes on its rear wheel may not be the most efficient mode of transportation. It's a little heavy and has only one gear. And spokes, besides connecting the rim to the ...

Students at Yale University have developed a spokeless bicycle wheel. As you can see from the photo, only the rear wheel is spokeless. This was done for cost reasons as the prototype was expensive to ...

A team of students at Yale decided to build a spokeless bike for their mechanical design class. One semester later, they had the machine you see here. The students concentrated on the rear wheel, for ...

Here's something that'll make you think twice before your next bike purchase -- the geniuses (genii?) at Yale University have built a pretty rad spokeless bicycle, which was somehow inspired by the ...

Admittedly, only the back wheel is spokeless, but there are reasons for that. The students that posted this up were in a mechanical engineering class at Yale, and wanted to prove that you could build ...

Leave it to a bunch of engineering students at Yale to design a crazy spokeless bike. It’s not the first spokeless bike we’ve seen, but it looks a lot more like a ...

Modern bikes are lighter and more efficient than ever before, but their basic design is rooted in the past. Cyclotron is trying to change that with a hubless carbon creation, complete with lighting ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The Y/AI concept bike is as futuristic as its name suggests. Its design features spokeless, semi-transparent wheels that emit a ...
