Amphibious Bike... The Ultimate All Terrain Vehicle

This bicycle has 4 pontoons which can retract or be extended for either riding the bicycle on land or on water. This kind of bike may be valuable to have in places prone to flooding especially in these times of global warming. The pontoons can also be used for dry storing cargo in and out of flood zones like in England's recent flood area.

This bike might be a bike that James Bond (agent 007) might ride in one of his films. However, his might come with an electric motor that gives it super speed in on land and water through an electric hub motor. And a seat behind him to carry his female spy master.

This is an excellent plan. It needs some refinements: (1) the top of the four floaters can be rigid, but the air enclosure could be a rubber tube that can be inflated and deflated when riding on land. Even if the tubes remain inflated, the bicycle will not look like a tank. Simply enclose 4 small car wheel inner tubes inside a bag that can be attached to the rigid swinging platform. The rider will have the choice to remove the bag or to deflate the bag. It will no longer look like a tank.

@generatorblue interesting ideas.

This is a threat to the economic advantages that have been afforded by the auto and oil industries for humanity to enjoy. God did NOT intend for us to regress into pedal power and solar power. God intended for us to move FORWARD with automotive power and oil, gasoline and nuclear power. Think about what GOD wants for a second and stop thinking about what your laziness wants. Get a job and get a car!

oh my science! you cannot be serious. first off, God?...never heard of him. and if i did believe i don't think he's a lobbyist for big oil and the automotive industry. secondly, what's so lazy about riding a bike. i ride my bike, rain or shine to WORK every day. it's good for you and it's good for the environment. have you ever ridden a bike? i know, i know it takes a lot of effort to push that heavy gas pedal with you foot. you must be worn out after your commute to and from work.

I think LatteLiberal was joking. Look at LatteLiberal's faverite videos and you will see many environmentally friendly selections, including solar and wind power devices.

There are some European inflatable pontoon models which work very well and stow on the bike rack or in a trailer for the bike, use the bike to pump the pontoons up, and power a propeller. This looks cool too. Now I want to make one of an old garage sale bike.

@upcycle Ten years ago, I had a plan to float a bicycle by using lot of 2-liter soda bottles. At the time the beverage companies had introduced 3-liter soda bottles.

This design can also use the bottles by simply screwing the bottle caps onto the rigid platform and then screwing the empty bottles. Here again, the bottles can easily be removed. Thanks for noticing my comment.
