    I remember this. I believe I read it in PopSci/Mech or some other magazine.

    I once rode over a freshly paved road where I am sure the asphalt spreader operator was new to job, didn't run the machine right and left a very wavy road surface that squarish wheels would glide over.

    Three wheel triangles do something like that with carts that climb over the staircase.

    Avoid the sales pitch though.. I am just posting it for reference
