As long as I can afford the space it takes, I'll be keeping mine just for the uniqueness of it. It’s just another conversation piece in my small bicycle “museum”. haha
I also have a Shimano coasting bike which I plan to keep. This one is an electronically controlled automatic three speed which functions much smoother than the Auto Bike. It even has an adjustment to tailor the shift points to the rider. Both are very cool in my book, even if they are not practical for most of my riding.
Thanks for the thread and update hotbike!
