FLIZ, A Pedal-Less Bike Concept
Ready for some next level Flintstones technology? Feast your peepers on this badboy bicycle.
FLIZ is a design concept for a pedal-less bike that the rider propels by running (video).
Finding your bicycle too conventional? In the “crazy ways to get around” class, the FLIZ pedal-less bike is certain to turn brains.
Although it’s not the most functional bike-variation I’ve seen, it has the benefit of actually working, unlike some other prototypes. I doubt it’ll catch on because, unlike on a bike, you have no gearing, but it’s still an interesting idea.
The bike frame suspends the rider above the ground so they can run with ease, a benefit that may prove useful for people with mobility problems.
Designers Tom Hambrock and Yuri Spetter drew their inspiration from the Laufmaschine, an early 1800s precursor to the bicycle.
Oh god, we’ve just gone back to the stoneage :/
Finally, all that annoying straightening and? streching my back eliminated for good.
EWeird concept. Would love to try it out.
WTF!?!
So weird lookin’
