A ten-speed, skin-tight neon green shorts, orange socks and sunglasses complete with lanyard. Hark! The ingredients of awesome. And never, under any circumstances, underestimate the importance of a fanny pack. Where else are you going to store your pogs and Pixy Stix? Let me tell you, if I had half of this kid’s awesome growing up, my life would have ...

Most city dwellers rely on their feet more than anything, but there are more than a handful that prefer to cruise around their respective hoods on wheels. Most of these bikers you’ll see with backpacks or messenger bags, because when you live a city, leaving your bike parked on the street without a lock and chain is not an option ...

This is no model or concept design. Available for the price of $100,000 or best offer on eBay (do they accept firstborns?), the Dark Knight Batpod, inspired from the Batman film The Dark Knight is a fully-functional motorcycle, welded together from hardened steel, bearing an uncanny resemblance to the real thing. The only part of this bike that doesn’t work ...

Sure, you could argue that you might as well just use a traditional bicycle or maybe even walk for a change, but some people require variety in their life. The Treadmill Bicycle takes the treadmill out from the confines of your home and allows you to power walk your way through nature, without all of that troublesome pedaling. Sort of ...

I’m not sure how this Forkless Bike works, so I’m just going to assume it’s via magic. Designed by Olli Erklia, this bike ain’t got no alibi, it’s forkless. Yeah, yeah, it’s forkless. Link [via]

They remind me of something a dorkier Bob Haro would have used back on his first Freestyler. Not only do they match well with the white or black coloring that’s available, but at $8 a pair, they’re also some ...

The concept was pretty simple. Take a bike and turn it into a drum kit. It sounds simple enough. But who would actually think of doing such a thing? David Osborne’s traveling drum kit takes about 20 minutes to transform from a bicycle into a… drum kit bicycle. The kit contains 5 cymbals, 3 snare drums and a foot pedal. ...

I have to admit, I’ve never seen someone attach a grocery cart to the front of a bicycle. Now that I think about it, why hasn’t anyone done this yet? It’s essentially the smartest way to cart around stuff if you don’t drive. You can now go grocery shopping and not have to worry about how much food you can ...

Here in New York City, there are a few select parking garages that are an example of master engineering. In Japan, the same concept applies to bicycles. Giken’s Eco-Park system involves an underground storage unit that is earthquake-proof and can hold a good number of bicycles (~50). For about $30, you can store your ride here each month and retrieve ...

Ferrari doesn’t make motorcycles, so how did this beauty come about? It’s the product of David Kay Engineering and was made back in 1995, when times were good and Silverchair was cranking out the hits. It has a 900cc engine that outputs 105 horsepower at 8800 RPM. All you need to know is that it’s fast. The bike goes up ...
