The Loopwheel system uses springs instead of spokes, giving the wheel built in suspension.
The £600 wheel is set to go on sale in September following a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign to raise money for the project.
44 year old Nottingham mechanical engineer Sam Pearce told MailOnline he came up with idea while watching a mother try and push a child in a buggy up a kerb.
'In 2007 I was sitting in an airport in Holland, and I noticed when a mother pushed a pushchair against a kerb, the baby was pushed forward.
'I suddenly wondered why the wheel couldn't have its own suspension, and quickly drew the idea down - and then did nothing about it for two years.
'Then I had a spare afternoon and remembered the idea, so decided to make a model with springs made from plastic guttering I bought from B&Q and a pencil as a hub - and it worked perfectly'.

Re: Wheely good
Few will know of the unspoken wheel. Too bad because it seems a good idea.
