Ron-Arad-Designed Bicycle with Spring Steel Wheels Up for Auction
Probably no the most practical wheel design but certainly cool!
Aside: When will Core77 change their mobile site so that people with big boy phones can view the video's without having to load the full site? Let the people with toy phones look at blue Legos.
