Looks fun, but it also looks like it takes much more skill to ride than a normal bike. Seems more like novelty than innovation. They should come up with a way to make the rear headset lockable for normal riding.

What is the advantage of this thing? that it is small enough to carry up stairs? I'd rather ride a normal bike or drive a car.(with a bike on my bike rack...)

It is just missing the giant spring so it can be a swing bike.

I would think that if you could rig some centrifugal clutch type hub in that wheel you'd could get a more practical top speed for commuting, without the addition of external drivetrain bits.






Or, something.

He looks totally comfortable and natural riding that. It doesn't look squirrely at all. Few things that steer with the rear wheels are.
