For a few years we have been seeing advances in this type of wheels that do not require air or a camera inside. The wheel factories themselves continue with their future plans to launch this type of wheel that They have the rim included and they never get punctured. In this sense, the tests conclude that this type of tire is already in a fairly advanced stage of development and therefore the manufacturer Bridgestone and others such as Michelin, are already considering the first production phase for the near future, we are talking about 2019 to see Bridgestone's first tires on a bicycle.
The materials used for the manufacture of these wheels are all recycled, which is why the fundamental aspect for their manufacture is taken care of in this sense. Another issue is the duration of the wheels that raises the curiosity of users, since it seems that the useful life of these wheels would be equal to that of conventional wheels with air. This is one of the first airless wheel concepts that the firm developed, in this case it is a car wheel but all this technology can be used to create tires for any type of vehicle:
In this sense, the bicycle that has these wheels of thermoplastic resin It allows its users to have the same experience as if they mounted normal wheels, what will change here is the price of the set and possibly the wheel changes when the wheel deteriorates over time. In short, there are some points that have yet to be finalized but that open the doors to this means of transport so used in large cities. It is evident that they are still working on the incorporation of these wheels in other vehicles, but the problem in this regard is that very high speeds are not fully controlled with this type of wheels, so they continue to investigate them as other do. manufacturers.
