If that were real, what would happen if you couldn't remember what part of the garage you parked it in.

I didn't even notice the shadows. Now I'm really impressed.

I'm suprised that the paint stays on the rubber tires so well.

I already employ this technology... it's quite popular in Japan.
Bicycle theft is not as much a problem as bicycle empoundment here.

I've been using similar stealth technology to enable safe illegal parking of my bike.

To answer wethepeople's concerns... if you can't find your stealth bike, you don't deserve to have it.

I already don't like this product. Last week at the velodrome I tripped over 3 people's bikes because I didn't know they were there, and they wanted their invisible disk wheels replaced! I told them to sue me and show the evidence to the judge.
