A wheel assembly includes a rim, an inner hub concentric with the rim, and an outer hub concentric with the rim and the inner hub. The outer hub is between the rim and the inner hub. The wheel assembly includes a first set of spokes spaced circumferentially about the inner hub between the inner hub and the outer hub. The first set of spokes are elongated radially from the inner hub and having a sinusoidal shape. The wheel assembly includes a second set of spokes spaced circumferentially about the outer hub between the outer hub and the rim. The second set of spokes are elongated radially from the outer hub and having a sinusoidal shape. The second set of spokes are aligned with the first set of spokes circumferentially about the outer hub.
