Via Treehugger, we introduce you to the HyperBike. (Actually, it's more powerful without the article in there.) So, via Treehugger, we introduce you to HyperBike. (Better.) If you follow the link, you will find a pretty image-challenged site, but don't let that slow your enthusiasm for a ride that'll get you to 50 MPG and gawks from everyone you blister past. Now, if someone can do the calculations on how many Kryptonites you'd need to secure this thing, we'd have a complete story here.

This is rediculous! What is he thinking?
This thing is just so stupid. The inventor claims that speeds of 50 MPH are possible, but that’s pure rubbish. He’s apparently based that on the gear ratios alone, without accounting for the horrible aerodynamics, the moment of inertia of the needlessly gigantic wheels, or the tremendous weight of the contraption itself. I’m all for odd pursuits, but don’t try to tell me it’s some sort of design and engineering breakthrough when it’s really just a poorly considered pile of pipe.
