This being a kickstarter makes it a non-starter for me but it looks pretty promising: Hopefully they work great and become popular.

    Looks like they are using a nickel titanium alloy for the shape and some exotic polymer for the covering. So, yeah non-pneumatic.

    The current cost to own a pair is quite high and really unlikely to come down significantly in price though

      If this actually takes off, price should come down substantially.

      Kickstarters aren’t known for manufacturing prowess or efficiencies of scale.

      Given the materials it’ll always be expensive, but there’s a lot of room to come down if these are sold in the 10s or 100s of millions
