A Hiking Bike

Imagine this bike with knobby tires and maybe a little different geometry. I imagine it would be a great hiking bike for steep fire roads.

It is also interesting to watch its maneuverability in a crowd in the video.

Low impact running for those of us who are getting old and have sensitive joints! I wonder if it's as awkward as it looks. It might actually be a good idea if they can make it look a little less bizarre!

Really neat idea there! It would definitely need a lil more caging around the sides and a head protector or something for when you roll off cliffs. :)

But really....I just want a damn hover board already....
