A few weeks ago, we came across a square-wheeled bike that moves like a battle tank. Even though people thought it was impossible to make it move, the designer proved that it could actually move. After this surprising design, the famous designer Sergii Gordieiev revealed his triangle-wheeled bike design. The shape of the wheels is a triangle. Do you think you can ride this bike?

In fact, yes, you can. Because Sergii Gordieiev perfectly designed his triangle-wheeled bike, You may not believe it, but the bike with triangle wheels is moving really smoothly. This ingenious bike also pleasantly surprises people with its nifty engineering. Moreover, the bicycle rides on wheels with rollers, moving in a linear manner. This clever design forms adjacent lines between each roller and the flat surface it’s riding on. As a result, the triangle wheels effortlessly overcome their limitations, allowing them to roll more comfortably than presumed.
The triangle-wheeled bike unbelievably navigates and maneuvers on uneven terrain, like dirt trails, with remarkable dexterity. Moreover, when considering the laws of physics, the Reuleaux triangle-shaped wheels are deemed the “simplest and best-known curve of constant width other than the circle.” This characteristic ensures consistent width throughout their rotation, enhancing the bicycle’s stability and performance.
The Q
Sergii Gordieiev has a passion for creating DIY bikes. You may think this passion is strange, and riding such bikes with strange wheels may not be probable. But, believe us, you can ride a triangle-wheeled bike just like you ride a regular bike. You may also think that the rider may feel discomfort while riding the bike. But here is the good news: Articulated arms work like an impact absorber. You do not feel the movement of the wheels. But of course, the bike does not move as smoothly as the square-wheeled one. So, what’s your opinion? Would you like to give it a chance?
