Opnions? Saw this on TV. Gimmick, good exercixe, flat land only use?

Coot curious.

Uses "law of angular momentum" for propulsion.

Trikke

Opinions........

Murmers.........

Rants...........

Prone to breakage? Pivot points a possible problem place?

Mash thine keyboards and send your thoughts into shantys across the world!!!!!!!!!
 
I saw a prototype of that on the idjit box a while ago.

I'd say that it's everything claimed for it...'cept I think that there's too much leverage around that front hinge/collapsible point for a muscle bound coot.
 
saw an article on "standing paddleboarding" on the idjit box tonight.

Might be coot friendly.
 
I've been seeing those things for a while. Every fad seems to start in Kaddiphonia. I don't know, I'm lazy and I prefer to sit down and to pedal my velociped in comfort.
 
I only watched one video, but it looks like you need a lot of space to use that because you have to rock it side to side. You need at least one traffic lane, if not more. So my question is where do you use it? Mixed use trails might be too narrow, unless you want to be a jerk and take up the entire trail and I wouldn't ride that thing in traffic.
