Re: Whegs, PID, and climbing
They are basically just three-spokes-without-a-rim-for-a-wheel. I'm not exactly sure why everyone finds them so interesting. Can't the exact same thing be done with a wheel with large lateral treads? (like the paddle treaded tires that monster trucks and such use for very loose terrain)
