Cool Italian Bicycle

[GordonTarling]

Does anyone think this bike is likely to see the market? Looks really cool, but still would suffer most problems that a normal bike does, except bent or broken spokes. It does fold up nice and small though!

I suspect that those wheels are very very fragile

Refreshing. I like.

I reckon that in order to hold the wheel in place a certain degree of "sideways/pincer " force would have to be exerted on the wheel rims and this would exert considerable drag /friction to be overcome by the rider. " Bellissimo- itsa modern masterpiece of design" said first owner Leonardo Vespa speaking from his bed in the acute coronary care unit of his local hospital.

No brake levers? It could have hub /back-pedal brake, a la Raleigh Striker I suppose.. But no front brake?
It looks like design over function to me. Folds down nicely, oh. except for the two 26" metal hoops! Whoops.
