Joseph Campbell’s velomobile doesn’t seem promising

Joseph Campbell designs a concept that looks amazing. It looks bulky as well as light-weighted to me, at the same time. The huge long and big golden body is attractive and resembles a single carrier aircraft, while the 3 wheels make it look delicate and light. I wonder how the 3 wheels carry the weight of the bulky body, but nevertheless it has quite a few features to boast about. The derailleur was moved to the pivot of the rear swing arm and is set up much like a bottom bracket w/ suspension on a mountain bike. Instead of having pedals and a crank the cassette and belt drive pulley are attached. I think this looks best as a concept, and am not too sure of its practical use.
