Where's the hub?

The E2 is driven by a rear rim-mounted motor with a hubless design that looks like it was borrowed from Tron’s Lightcycle. Feeding off three power cables, the design reduces rotational mass while delivering 67 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque.

Hubless wheels have been around in prototypes for a long time.

There used to be a Discovery Channel show called Beyond 2000 I think. They featured a 2WD motorcycle that used hubless wheels.

All in all pretty cool.

Personally, I want to see an electric motorcycle that looks like Kaneda's bike from Akira.
