Looks like a death trap on wheels to me.

Strongly agree.

 

Tiddly bike, on tiny wheels, with tiny wheelbase length. The handling must be utterly hideous.....and that's before you hit any sort of pothole.

Some of you have no sense of adventure :D :D

We had a friend who had one and took it to Germany for a microcar rally in our converted ambulance with him, it enabled him to tootle about 'independently' without having to rely on us all the time to get him to places ... he is only a little chap though!

 

They have been around for a long time and I can certainly remember looking at them at a motorhome show in the not too distant past (along with the Di blasti folding cycles).

With the way that fuel costs are going up and up, the fact that they are supposed to get 127mpg might have a bearing on how popular they become! 8-)

That's if you get 127 miles without being killed by an articulated lorry first. :D
