The Reevo is like a physical embodiment of wilful ignorance; ignorance about why good bicycles are designed in the way that they are.
They started with a bad idea (hubless wheels) and proceeded to build something that fails a literally everything that's good about a good bicycle.

It's inefficient, it's heavy, it's overly complex, it's fragile, it's hard to maintain, it's hard to get moving (apart from when you don't want it to), it's hard to stop, it's uncomfortable, it's noisy, it's unsafe, and it depends on ephemeral technology (mobile phones and cloud services) for core functionality. It's the anti-bike.
