Sprung Steel Wheeled Bicycle by Ron Arad

UK-based designer Ron Arad created a bicycle with working sprung steel wheels as part of the WOW Bikes charity auction co-hosted by the Elton John AIDS Foundation and the W Hotel in London (see the smooth riding bike in action via Dezeen). The bike is one of six custom designed bikes that will be auctioned off on December 1.

I've heard the phrase 'reinvent the wheel' all my life but this is the first time I've actually seen it. An impressive bit of original thinking and the concept could actually be useful.

That is cool, I suspect it might be a tad bit of a slippery ride though!
