When it comes to designing, and making tires, Bridgestone is about as innovative as they come, but chances are good no one saw their latest collaboration with Bridgestone Cycle Company coming from a mile away. The dynamic duo has announced the world’s first air free bicycle tire — something you must see to believe.

The Bridgestone Air Free Bicycle Tire Concept was created as an effort to expand on their new “Air Free Concept” — futuristic looking bicycle tires that never go flat. The next-generation high-tech tire design, given its flexibility due to the use of resin, also has the tire company talking about the next-generation of bicycles which have never been seen before by the public.

This fun and funky new tire is designed with a unique structure of spokes, made from thermoplastic resin that spreads across the inner walls of the tires to support the weight of the vehicle. The resin rim is covered with rubber in the typical tread position.

Not only does this mean that we now have radically cool bicycle tires that never go flat, it signals the beginning of a new “flat-free” tire world. The Bridgestone Group also plans to begin proposing new ways of utilizing this amazing new technology and their “Air Free Concept” for use in the production of various other types of tires, as well.
