The spokes are configured and sized and operatively coupled to each other so that the tread maintains a single predetermined elongated shape by varying a tread-to-hub distance between each of the pairs of respective tread-to-spoke and hub-to-spoke attachment locations as the spokes are moved between the spoke first and second configurations.",
