Reimagining the wheelโข in partnership with #NASA, developing futuristic airless tires for cycling, mobility, automotive & aerospace, using space-age materials.
Airless tires from Michelin are not first principle design. The tech is rubber shear bands which have hard limits at the material level. SMART tire is Mars/alien tech that is airless but also strong, light & efficient, not a solid rubber concept from 2005 @elonmusk@Tesla
So, I wonder how many of these no-puncture no-air @SmartTire#cycling tyres the @parisroubaix organisers are getting in for the 2024 race? ๐ค๐

The shape-memory alloy that @SmartTire uses in its METL tires is based on the advanced material technology NASA is planning to use for future rover missions.
@BBCClick's @laralewington got a chance to test ride our award-winning, airless bicycle tires at #CES2023! Even though it was an usually cold day in Las Vegas, she was keen for a great ride! ๐ Thanks, Lara and BBC. See you next time we're in the UK! ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฒ #cycling#smart#tech

NASA wasn't able to launch Artemis I today, but we were still able to launch https://t.co/v5Tn73xR6g. Go check us out now! #nasa#smart#LTV#moonshot ๐
This airless tire made for NASAโs Mars rovers could revolutionize tires on Earth.
It uses the shape memory alloy radial technology (SMART) which was first developed by NASA for future planetary exploration rovers.

@TTownJoe @ridespin@ridespin is now owned by @tier_mobility but our great work continues! ๐ Here is a photo of the actual SMART airless scooter tire that rides smooth, is more fuel efficient, more sustainable, and is never flat!! ๐ด #gamechanger#costsavings#saferride#smart
@MarsCuriosity And the next phase of #nasa rover tires will be made with shape memory alloys, giving even more flexibility and durability to missions. https://t.co/pIwee22s8I is the future! ๐
