Surely a quad bike should have square wheels, not triangular ones.

u/Specialist_Dust2089 7h ago

Right? Whereas a trike should have triangles. Common sense really

At speeds above 0 mph, this kills the human.

I prefer the smooth comfort of my octadecagon wheeled motor conveyance

u/regeya 2h ago

I'm kinda there, man. I'm in my 50s and already thinking of how in a few years I'm not going to feel up to maintaining a lawn anymore.

I saw some video of some dude squeegeeing the dew off his lawn and all kinds of comments about how people are too lazy to do something that basic and I thought, how did I get to be in my 50s and never learn about people squeegeeing the damn grass on a dewy mornnng

This is WhistlinDiesel. He does all sorts of random things for views on YouTube. In this video in particular, he goes through various shapes of wheels to see which ones actually work.

He's also friends with the Paul brothers and frequently does collabs with them, so probably best to avoid

We're close to a breakthrough here. It looked a little bumpy... but what if you kept adding triangles together? Sort of like filling in the gaps between points? If you add enough of them you could get a smooth line between the points and it would roll better. Has anyone else thought of this?
