The whole silly idea summed up in the first paragraph.
I think, in spite of repeated references to 'tangential' suspension, what he has actually invented is a wheel with radial suspension, and he might be better going back to his inspiration - tiny wheels on prams and strollers take hits close to radially from kerbs, and might actually benefit from his design. Big wheels on bikes need to be controlled with dampers, or you just turn your bike into a two-axis pogo stick.
