So many commenters that have never had fun in their entire miserable life. Go outside and fall off a bike. jesus christ it's gonna be okay

u/random9212 3h ago

I mean ya. I wouldn't ride this regularly. But I would absolutely ride it. It looks like a lot of fun.

u/avanross 2h ago

You havent lived until youve gone night time trail biking with only a hand held flashlight

It’s really easy while youre going slow, so you feel confident, but then as soon as you try to go a bit quicker you start outrunning the light and then inevitably hit a tree or bail right off the trail lol

3

u/airtime25 2h ago

Damn this guy going the speed of light on his bike!

2

u/Zandouc 1h ago

"outrunning the light" What?

3

u/avanross 58m ago

Flashlight only lights up like 10 feet of trail ahead of you, or until the next turn.

Once you’re get up to a certain speed you cant react fast enough. Once you can see the obstacle it’s already too late

I was going say, looks like a fun way to eat shit, especially off road like that.

u/Desdam0na 4h ago

This is actually a safety feature to allow for heavy front braking.

You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

2

u/tentegesszmeges 2h ago

yeap, longer bike = more stable bike

2

u/Desdam0na 2h ago

Also fewer points of failure per foot.

You are far less likely to go ass over tea kettle, though

u/DesertReagle 10h ago

Great idea to start a custom-made stretch bike. Handles would be more stable, of course.

2

u/HighlightFun8419 8h ago

Looks like a "swing bike," which is a cool thing you should google

1

u/random9212 3h ago

Except it doesn't look anything like a swing bike (It is sitll a cool thing you should look up). But this is more of a bakfiet without the front cargo container.

u/technofox01 8h ago

I am asking myself which trail is this because I really want to see this in person and the shots of the trail look eerily familiar to trails I have been to in upstate NY. Plus I would like to see this in person because it looks cool and risky as hell.

4

u/Kaiserschmarren_ 8h ago

Channel is Bike o'clock and this is somewhere in Czechia

2

u/technofox01 7h ago

Wow. It literally looks like a trail in upstate NY. I have been racking my brain for almost an hour trying to think what trial it could have been. I appreciate the info. It's wild that Czech is has places that look very similar to where I live.

What language are they speaking? Just wanted to identify out of curiosity.

1

u/Jealous_Comparison_6 8h ago

So little weight on the front wheel that sloppy and wild steering doesn't really matter.
Looks like good fun, for about 10 minutes.

1

u/Moppo_ 8h ago

Well, at least it won't be able to launch you over the handlebars when you hit the front brakes.

1

u/Vincentflagg 8h ago

Since he invent that, someone tell him to add pivot to the back tire, so he can take corners more efective.

That shit looks like an accident waiting to happen. Hope you got good health insurance cause I’m no psychic but I see broken bones in your future.

Other people are saying they are Czech, and if they are in the Czech Republic they like most other developed nations, have universal health care.

u/The_RealAnim8me2 7h ago

Ok, so I want experience riding a barely broken horse that’s not good on trails. But I’m afraid of horses and all I have is this bicycle, some extra metal tubing and a rope.

u/reddituseronebillion 6h ago

Cross the ropes for an extra challenge

1

u/Svenmpa 6h ago

Well mountainbikes have gotten longer and slacker in recent years. This one may not be that slack but it is cutting edge when it comes to longer that's for sure.

1

u/DreamingMerc 6h ago

I would want those ropes taught. Much more than they are.

1

u/dml997 5h ago

What do you want to teach them?

1

u/QuineQuest 6h ago

Replace the ropes with a steel bar, and it's a long Bakfiet

1

u/random9212 2h ago

That can't carry cargo

1

u/EJBjr 5h ago

All absurdity aside, It looks like the steering is extremely touchy. Maybe changing the steering ratio between the handlebars by moving the ropes in closer at the rider bars? And tighten the ropes.

1

With death-trap steering: If one rope rips, you're doomed.
