Mountain Biking - Do you want fries with that bike?

McDonald's to Sell McKids-Branded Skateboards, Bikes - http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,159799,00.html

How long do you think before some Yoohoo asks, "Does Mc Donald's make a good bike? Should I get one?"

Hilarious.

Huffy riders everywhere are salivating.

Oh damn, that's a good laugh, funniest thing I've heard all day.

I've always wanted a McKids bicycle, high quality chinese bikes.


Are they going to put them on the menu? I'd like a medium bike please!!

Ya, and the fry dude will assemble it while he waiting for the fries to finish!!

:p

The fry dude can barely take the fries out on time. Could you imagine how quickly that bike would fall apart?!

:p

... and we all thought it couldn't get worse than "Larry in Hardware" assembling your bike. Now we have "Chris on Burger Assembly" now "Chris on Burger/Bike Assembly".

P.S. - I used the name Chris because my cousin Chris used to work at McDonald's in high school on the burger assembly line. He always came home (he was raised by my parents) smelling like French fries. Now I guess he would come home smelling like WD-40 and French fries.

Does this mean they are going to have "ride thru" windows now????

The bikes are sold at Target and Amazon.

Mcdonald's is simply branding the bike e.g. a decal. It's not like your spokes are going to be made out of straws.

What's in the bottom bracket? M&M's for bearings and vanilla soft serve for grease?

I love this picture. Thanks for sharing. I set it as the background on my phone. I am going to tell everyone I am trying to be a XC race legend like my hero Ronald McDonald.

:roflmao:
HILARIOUS! :lol: ....I wonder if their bikes will be able to hold up to the fat kids the ride them.

On a singlespeed! With only a driveside crank! And no front brake. Does that thing use a coaster brake? Ronald is hardcore! :D Although just from that picture alone, I'd be worried about getting a McDonald's branded bike. I can see it now. You pull the thing out of the box and wonder what idiot designed a bike without a chainstay.

The bikes are most likely going to be hunks of crap but atleast they're (announced) intentions are good. Obviously they want to make money and make themselves look good, but the excercise idea isnt bad.

:rolleyes: I find it weird that they keep putting an emphasis on fitness and selll all that...

I know some kids that will buy it just for the novelty of it, but then again, thats bussiness for ya!

i think i would buy one. just to fill the tubes with rockets and fireworks.

No amount of exercise can make amends for a super sized double whopper meal with a chocolate milkshake and four extra packets of salt on the fries :p

I'd buy one and drive it over with my Jeep, I mean hell how expensive could they be, I couldn't imagin them being more than $49.99 :eek:

lol if that. i wouldn't be surprised if they gave out free bikes with every 10th happy meal

Sadly we all know it won't be long

Come on, Snuff....BK has the Whopper, McD's has Super Size.

Because it's only a matter of time, I shall go first:
There is nothing wrong with those bikes. Why I used to have a Huffy that I rode across the Sahara desert and I never had 1 problem with it. My kids all have McKids bikes and are very happy, and we plant flower in the frames after they break, so they are educational, as well. You people must be a bunch of elitist rich-boys with your high-dollar $300 bikes. :D

These bikes are going to collapse under the fat kids that ride them and then mc donalds will be sued...

You guys have GOT to take a look at that skateboard...that is the biggest POC I've ever seen!
The bikes don't look much better...they have one called the Topsy Turvey 10 Inch!!! They should rename that the Topsy Turvey 10 Stitch, 'cause thats how many stitches it's gonna take to sew up Junior's melon once those wheels fall off.

Come on, Snuff....BK has the Whopper, McD's has Super Size.

Right you are, forgive me. It's been at least 5 years since I had a McD burger :o

Actually where I live, McDonalds no longer has super size, they have a lot of fruit based items though.
Maybe the bike will be $6.99 with the purchase of a kids happy meal.

:roflmao: Are those bikes made of plastic? and the skateboard won't go anywhere with those wheels. :lol:

The wheels are going to make it so inefficient that its really going to give those kids a workout!

That has got to be the most dangerous skateboard i have ever seen. I thought the stupid razor scooter was bad, but this makes that razor look like a safe mode of transport.

joel im sure they do... but ever since Super Size Me, mcdonalds made a new policy that they wont ask if you want to supersize... but it's still there, its just thtat the customer has to ask.

I have seen so many kids fall off of those razor scooters its unbelieveable. :eek: I hate em.

Those things have no control; my cousin (8 years old) fell off of a scooter similar to the razor ones. Long story short, she broke her wrist.

They are too twitchy for a small child to handle, and the wheels are too small. They hit a small pebble and the next thing you know they are covered in scrapes and cuts.

Heh, my niece went down a paved hill too fast on a scooter and crashed once. Just a scratch...
Those things are pretty fun. Harder to go fast than it is on a bike though...

Based on those links McD's is trying to tell us that bikes are for girls. That skate board looks like it would be a cool little gravemarker for lil' Timmy
