Well, there is some ingenuity/engineering going on there; I'll guess 'steampunk' has a new meaning now! Thanks for sharing the video. 👍

from the frame to the power plant to the overall layout of the design, that is some good work! Impressive that steam could be scaled to fit a bicycle.

Interesting concept. I wonder if it's road legal?
