By also employing a small brake caliper engaging the inside of a larger-diameter, thinner, wheel-mounted rotor, weight savings in the brake system effectively offset the motor’s unsprung weight.

giving the rotor a little boost. The difference here is that rather than low-friction sapphire bearings, this motor uses zero-friction magnetic levitation using pyrolyzed graphite discs.
