I have crashed in about every way possible. About the only time I have ever gone over the bars is A.) Flying down a ridiculously steep hill only to find the gate closed at the bottom and B.) Hitting a car or a similar immobile obstacle at a fair rate of speed, in both cases because I was simply not paying attention (something not addressed by bike style.)

Oh, and once when I went down a really steep hill as a child and couldn't make a turn, hit a curb, a hydrant, and did a flip.

Here it seems we have the product of the lifelong consideration of someone who never learned to ride a bike and also never learned a dang thing about anatomy.

This is hilarious: "6. COMFORT – What is more comfortable than lying down? Your hips are supported by soft “catcher mitt”, leather covered supports."

Yeah, because the front loops of your pelvis are designed by millions of years of evolution top support your body weight. Dude,, lying down is comfortable because it spreads the weight over the greatest area---this thing concentrates is on parts of the body designed Not to bear weight.

Talk to me after your first century (attempt.)

What we have here is what happens when a guy can never get over that day when he was nine and his friends dared him to ride down the hill without using the brakes.

But hey, he did hire a nice-looking young lady to demonstrate so props to him for that.
