That's wild. It's like a recumbent, but normal bike height off the ground. (I'm captain obvious here, I know)

Is it hard to get going or stop? Seems like it would be awkward to keep your balance with a high center of gravity for that first few seconds after you lift your legs up until you get moving.

But...I bet once you're moving you can ride for a lot longer without needing a rest since you're in a reclined sitting position without any weight on the handlebars. I imagine your legs get tired like a normal bike but your hands and butt don't.
