It's the stupid pedals that keep me from doing it.

Total vaporware. CGI and a non functioning mockup. Tech that doesn't even exist. Completely an artists conception.
Edit: After more research, this is looking like another Kickstarter scam like the electric bicycle. Fools and their money...

Even if it did exist and was for sale I wouldn't touch it. There is no need for GPS or computers or ion batteries or any of that pelosi in or on a bycycle. This technology fetish has gone over board, and is ruining our every day lives.
No thanks.

I do some Mt biking and the only thing I added to the bike was a NRA sticker on my frame.
It's a good way to stir the pot on the trails in South. Cal.

Here's a great road for bicyclists.
Around here they are arrogant and will ride side by side on our narrow windy road, so they are not well liked.

I like my Terratrike. It is comfortable and easy to ride.

Looks pretty wobbly. Perhaps a function of extreme light weight. Filming in the dark hides all those prototype secrets.
Re: This might actually get me back into bicycling...
I have an entry level Trek "Adult Comfort Bike" that I bought several years ago. 21 useable gears, and I can sit straight up on it.
Now, even with gears for the two or three big hills on my ride, my knees ache like a &*^^$#!! I suppose I could walk the bike up the hills though. I really need some exercise.

That is one of the reasons why I like my Terratrike. It is pretty easy on the knees. Here is a link to what mine looked like before I added a carrier on the back for an extra tube and a pump, and a light on the front.http://www.terratrike.com/rambler.phpBlaineG wrote:I have an entry level Trek "Adult Comfort Bike" that I bought several years ago. 21 useable gears, and I can sit straight up on it.

At those prices, my knees can ache quite a bit.piller wrote:That is one of the reasons why I like my Terratrike. It is pretty easy on the knees.
