From the fine folks at Bicycle Forest.


The video is worthwhile, as are the Sweet Jumps.

Why do you need the handbrakes though? Just turn around and run backward!

Ooo...I betcha you could get a fixed-gear version, lose the brakes, and cut those handlebars down a bit.


"Tread polo"

Wow.


If I ever build anything that dumb, or even talk about anything the dumb, please steal my welder.

I think it's a joke "Because the Treadmill Bike is also a mode of transportation, use it instead of your car for everyday tasks such as shopping, and traveling to school or your place of work. " Shopping eh? Where would you put anything? I guess somebody could run on one of those with a Chrome bag :P But alas, I saw one of these in action on some video linked on this forum

They won't fit in bus bike racks.
