Billy Lane (choppers inc) has been doing hubless rear wheels for ages

but I can't see how this one has been done ..... Billys has a belt attach to the side of the hub .... I can't see on the video  :dontknow:

I know it's basic but thats not what it's about. You don't buy something like that and worry about tyre wear or ride it much faster than 55mph it is purely to make people go WOW as it passes buy  :icon_thumright:

That's the bloke from Amen Choppers. He has a bug up his arse about who invented it first. He has been involved in a long running fued with Billy Lane

It's more to do with the internal hub bearing design.
