At least it's a fixie.  Now if it only came in a folding version.  And where's his helmet???  Or chain-mail jockstrap?????  Or super hero cape????

As an incomplete Idiot thank you for presenting me with a real chance at completion.

Perhaps you can use this contraption on the next naked ride! :D

Not sure why, but it seems a little more erotic every time someone posts it.

Thank god it has disc brakes!  And would, formally, this be considered a fixie, since his legs cannot change gears?

You love running but your knees can't take it anymore....

it would be amusing doing this naked.  get enough speed for a steady roll, flail your legs around, flopping all over the place.

its as "fixed" as your front wheel on any bike.  more like just "affixed"

You wont have to wait long; Flugtag is this weekend

this does have a certain wilbur and orville wright sensibility. Just attach some davinci-esque skeletal winged contraption to the top of the arc, and you have zee zumwaltflugzeug. Embelish that with some brass and leather, and you'll be the hit at any steampunk party...

Wait I'm thinking of making a plane out of it for next years FlugTag!
