Reverse Steering Bike - $60

This. Is. Insane.

"I built it, I can't ride. My brain will not allow me to think backwards any more than it already does (so I am told). It has coaster brakes, though I doubt you will ever get to use them. You can get your money back in one afternoon of betting your friends they can't ride it. It is in a rough finish and not sanded down or painted yet. Guess you could say it is in it's "Proto-type Stage". Anyway, it is a complete bike with ballon tires. The backwards steering is accomplished by adding a second steering yoke and then using 2 same size gears that reverse the direction of the steering. An even better deal; if you can get on it, and in 30 seconds manage to ride it 10 yards without your feet touching the ground, I'LL GIVE YOU THE BIKE --- FREE."
