Hehe, you dont sit down, the little seat is to save having the weight of a normal seat and seat post while also stopping you from getting the seat tube up your ass. :wink:

so that's a fake seat to prevent yourself from becoming one with the bike?
why are the gears so small? or is that because of the camera
yea, back from the dead

If it ain't broken, mod it until it is

Yes, indeed it is.

The front gears are small to get better ground clearance.

Which means to get a decent ratio the rear gears are also small. I normaly run somthing like 22tooth:19tooth and 22tooth:18tooth.

Its a fairly specialist bike and isnt really much use for normal biking, due to the gears, the seat and the rear brake pads.

Trials! WOW! I saw trials with those specially designed motobikes the other the day for the first time. That was amazing!

If you can do those tricks on a pedal powered bike, I bow to technical prowess!
