We’ll have to keep an eye out for an agile super-heroine handling the Strider in an animated movie in the future. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Superheroine Motorcycles:** Designing transport for female superheroes could become a niche market for designers and bike manufacturers. - **Spokeless Wheels:** The elimination of spokes on wheels could disrupt the bike and automotive industries with new designs and advancements in wheel technology. - **Spiral-shaped Body:** Innovative body designs with curves and twists could become a disruptive trend in the transportation industry, inspiring new shapes and technologies. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive Industry:** Innovative designs for spokeless wheels, unique body shapes and twists could attract a new wave of bike enthusiasts, whilst challenging automotive design as we know it. - **Animation Industry:** The Strider is a perfect fit for animated superhero feature films that are growing in popularity, suggesting motorcycle designs that could become a staple of this genre. - **Design Industry:** Creating unique and attractive designs for transport is a never-ending opportunity, with designers and transportation manufacturers looking to capitalize on new and innovative designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Superbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/akiraducati-superbike.md) - [Futuristic Sci-Fi Motorbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hermes-x30.md) - [Dapper Dual-Tone Superbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-motorrad-ch4-superbike.md) - [Hybrid Design Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spirit-electric-motorcycle.md) - [Transparent Electric Cafe Racers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crdos-ghost-concept-motorcycle.md) - [Shapeshifting Superbike Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypercycle.md) - [Chic SUV-Inspired Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/land-rover-defender-700-motorcycle.md) - [60s-Inspired Electric Superbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-turner.md) - [Custom-Built Sci-Fi Series Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bumblebee-bike.md)
