I laughed out loud when I saw that photo on their site! She must've been thinking..."Hmmm...small bike with small wheels? Must have a small dingaling too! PASS!" lol

Cornering must be tough. Can you imagine the pedal strike? But on a high note...there doesn't seem to be any toe overlap!

now i'm really confused. is it a sex toy or a legitimate means of transportation? that photo and the website in general makes it hard to tell.
who knows.. but... "check out that chainline!" hahahaha..

Gandy, as in Jason Gandy? I thought he wasn't in new york anymore...or is he back?
yeah those images are heinous. No direction skills, PS skills, or numbchuck skills.

it kinda makes me a little angry to tell you the truth. it's like a crappy extenstion of a crappy personality. just knowing that there is someone out there who put this together for the sole purpose of trying to get attention is maddening. he's probably the same guy who spills beer at your party, hits on your girlfriend, throws up in your toilet and then makes the neighbors call the cops.

i too thought this is a nightmare designed by gandi or his offspring, but the more you flock it the more i need a bike like that.. especially if it comes complete with a girl and all.. will uci allow it? is it track legit? is she? :rolleyes:

No, we won't. We will laugh at you, even harder than we laugh at unicycle guy. At least it'll be harder for us to shove sticks in your spokes.

If ladies like guys who can perform the most spectacular headers over their handlebars (and I have to assume they do, in light of the fact that I managed to find one to marry me), then the high-wheeler is definitely the way to go.
