High mileage, fuel efficient, econo-chopper cycle, or whatever you want to call it.

Oh, that looks like one of those new environmental green ones.

Just the thing for a double century. I'll bet whoever rides that thing has Calves of Steel.

Pretty neat ride. Doesn't even need a side stand with that wide tire on the rear. The headlight just looks right too. Dunno about fork flex though, could be a little iffy in the twisties.

I don't see anything in the way of brakes unless there's a coaster-type brake on the rear wheel. I guess it doesn't go very fast, that rear tire looks pretty heavy, and you'd need a lot of stamina to ride that thing any distance. Downhill it looks like it would be pretty good, if you could stop with something other than Flintstone brakes.

i have a feeling he didn't built it with the practicality police or safety nazis in mind.
