Travel in any direction? What a concept! Really what is the point of this though? Not more aerodynamic for sure. What would a tire cost? Anyway my Dyson rolls like that so I'm ready when they come on the market.

Mine has large gyroscopes on both the front and back of the bike that maintain stability
