    What happens when you need to brake super hard?

    The bike slows down gradually, it also charges the battery. The break aslo works as an antiskid system just like ABS in a car. Check out or testing video for more (link in description).

    Steering is just as easy as leaning into a corner, this video features an older bike and a novice rider, 3 years on and we have made vast improvements on the design... including a lower seat.

    But how quickly can you fit your bicycle into your car, train, plane, boat, taxi? The YikeBike has not been invented to replace the bicycle, its here to complement other forms of transport.

    so.. you can't brake hard (even with good brakes you would fall over, simple physics). no suspension worth mentioning, together with the instability that they couldn't even hide in the video (all this wobbling ) makes for a really dangerous or at least uncomfortable ride. not to mention the range which is almost useless you would walk those distances easily. oh and it looks stupid. well I'm not buying. thats for sure.

    I bought one, got it in the mail a few days ago. I use it to go back and forth from work, and I use a back pack to get my groceries. Haven't used my car since I got it.
