Anyone have any ideas? Prototype? Looks flimsy, I think it is a start though.

Anyone know what the name/logo is?

Discuss......

Definitely wouldnt work in the real world. Thats a photo shoot model im sure. The side to side streses on a wheel would be too much for that setup.

There's a bmx concept floating around the Internet as well - been discussed before .... Be dope to see if it actually works and could withstand the rigors of today's riding

What's been up by the way david ? You never go back to me when I texted you earlier this yr on our trip down to obx. Hope alls well.

Picture a long fork on that setup where the dork dropouts go all the way to the rim at the lowest point and the weight going on the fork dropouts with that " front hub setup" I bet that would work.

I've seen the white bmx style one of these and it "looks" dope

They have been doing hubless/spokeless rears in the chopper scene for a while. Not sure how it would work in the bicycle world but I bet it would. Anything is possible.

I like the clean look of it but would like to see someone riding it. The seat seems really far away from the bars?
