Since there are pieces that bolt to hold the inner race,THAT is the hub,albeit a large one.A wheel cannot be hubless or it would roll away on its own.it APPEARS hubless.I'm not saying it doesn't look cool as hell,I'm just saying the inner race,and the system that clamps it is in effect,a hub,it is just so large you don't notice it..You don't need sopkes to make it an axle hub.One piece spun aluminum wheels have no spokes,but still have a central hub.In this case the inner race is used as a hub.

I recall a cycle world article written by the fantastic Kevin Cameron on Billy Lanes shop, "Choppers Inc." its bikes, and in particular the hubless chopper. Billy took inspiration from helicopter propeller shaft bearing set ups amd materials and using his engineering education and creativity adapted them to his bike. It was ridable, reliable and durable. A watershed design in the chopperworld wasteland of the time.

@chuckles19545 жыл бұрын
By having the bearings close to the outside diameter of the wheel, they are spinning furiously at road speed. They travel several feet compared to having them close to the center of the wheel where they would travel inches at the same speed. These expensive bearings would have to be constantly bathed in very low friction lube to last even a short time. They would also need dirt and water protection they don't seem to have closer to the pavement. Having to change a $10k bearing every 500 miles verses 200k miles makes this a trailer queen to shows. Mag Lev wheels would be the only thing to make this configuration practical. Call me in 100 years.

My math is probably terrible, but that large of a wheel is turning 800 or 900 RPM, MAX, at highway speeds. Such a massive bearing has probably 5-6x the number of individual balls per row that a conventional hub bearing would have, meaning more bearings at any given time handling the radial load, and is going to be exponentially better at distributing lateral load since it's placed so far near the circumference of the tire. That all seems like it would be well within the abilities of such a large industrial cartridge bearing; if anything I'd expect it to last tens of thousands of miles unless continuously ridden in dry, dusty or sandy conditions with no maintenance.

There is no hub here. The hub is the centre portion of the wheel to which an axle is attached. It is also where spokes are attached at the center of the wheel, if spokes are being used. (Hence "hub and spoke",) You're thinking of a hub cap on a car and assuming that whole area is the hub. The hub cap is actually meant to cover that centre portion that's attached to an axle. The rest of a hub cap is purely for decoration.

@IgorGiganskiANtiatom It was the way he hit it. When you fit a bearing into a housing, by all means use a hammer, but be sure to hit only the outer bearing race - the part that touches the housing. If you just blindly whack the whole assembly, like he did, you will hit the inner race as well and the shock will make the balls leave small pits in the races. The result is a ruined bearing - did you hear it chattering when he spun it? I think he used an already bad bearing for the demonstration.

I know, people always label "gearheads" stupid right off the bat. When in truth it takes allot of skill and knowledge to do what they do.
@cioperfull mult umesc, nebun e bike frumosole da?
Okay so is there any real practical advantage to a hubless wheel or is it all just about the cool factor?
Make like an equation

Jeff Puskarich to enturpulate it?!??
how do you lubricate it does it last done lots of wheel bearings
It’s like a double skate bearing (bones) That’s fucking brilliant!
geil
it looks cool but whats the range of useablity it doesn't look like its gonna take some rough use
Hubless wheel LOOKS FUCKING RIDICULOUS
¿Cómo se consiguen esos rodamientos?
Word of the day: SPROCKET!
SMART ........BILLY LANE......... FABENS,TX.
The logic of the bearing being destroyed depends on the function of the bearing itself. We can be sure that he used a high load, high speed rated bearing for this application.
it makes me think of the real early 20th century drives,I applaude your engineering, but other than flash its seems impractical and understanbly its a lotta dough.
Franco Sbarro invented the hubless wheel in 1989
Now guys... let's not try to re-invent the wheel...
How do you stop
hows the gearing with that huge sprocket
My question bearing noisy while spinning on the road...?
Oye por gue está tan bajita la moto
@jallendubya Eh, you can, I don't have time to bother with it, so if you can get you some money for yourself with it, go for it. Plus the benefit of liquid or air bearings is that they auto center themselves (unlike what I ball bearing would do saying if one or a few of them got chipped etc).
the purpose of this is to be unique and nothing else cause its expensive, impractical and not reliable or safe in the long run.

no shit sherlock, looking cool outweighs every aspect of "practicality"
how does the braking work???
@DlbDareDevil his design isnt the same as those and is effective in its own right, so that means people can still try to copy his particular design
